Rugby



Yesterday I went to see the All Blacks play South Africa at rugby. It was amazing (better pictures coming soon)!

The game itself was okay but the atmosphere was was really made the difference. Being there with thousands of other supporters cheering people on. One thing really struck me: Why did people (me included) get more excited (at least externally) when a player gets a try than we do when someone becomes a Christian?

Part of the excitement about the try comes with the atmosphere of being there. But then I do think we get excited about people becoming Christians. I had\ve seen lots of real joy and excitement in the faces of the students at the little steps their friends make in the journey towards knowing Christ. Its just we don't dance around, yell and do mexican waves... But maybe we should start doing that! It would makes things a lot more fun!
