Tailgating at Home

A feeding frenzy will be breaking out this Sunday in a neighborhood near you!

Family and friends will gather from sea to shining sea and engage in a feast that is second only to Thanksgiving Day in the good 'ole USA.  Why?  It's SUPER BOWL SUNDAY, that's why!  SB Sunday is a national holiday that non-footballers jump in on.  Whose playing anyway?  Who cares?  Let's EAT!

From Turkey Day, through Christmas and on to Super Bowl Sunday the average American will gain from 5-7 pounds of pure lard.  Frito-Lay, the largest potato chip producer in the world ups its production of chips by 10 million pounds just to meet the demand of Super Bowl Sunday.  Jason Day's Kitchen in Roeland Park, Kansas goes big on Super Bowl Sunday with the annual 'Bacon Explosion' pork roll.  That munchie will add 5,000 calories to your waistline, blood sugar and left and right ventricles, and will cost you at least an hour on the stair stepper to after the Post Game. 

"He who comes to me will never go hungry, and he who believes in me will never thirst." John 6:35 

NEVER go hungry?  NEVER thirst?  Jesus said that it is possible to stuff our faces and live an empty life.  Real nourishment of the soul is what all of us really are after.  Tailgating at home just magnifies that fact when you think about it.  What would happen if we laid off the Lays and opted for the soul food Jesus offers?  I am anxious for a fresh touch from Him that is moving my appetite from the snack tray to the Bible Book.  Want to join me?  Visit www.clearpointchurch.com and click on the Awakening 21 icon.  It's an invitation for feasting that you might want to pull up a chair to.

An ad for during last year's Super Bowl was sponsored by the United Way through spokesperson, Tom Brady, New England's Super Bowl Champion.  If you texted the word "FIT" to the designated number you would contribute $5.00 to the UW Youth Fitness Fund.  Try that with a hot wing in one hand and burrito wrap in the other!
