A Lesson in Sportsmanship

Sermonette by Ted E. Bowling

The 'Pierre De Coubertin Medal' is given out for sportsmanship, honoring generous behavior toward competing athletes—much harder to win than a gold medal.

Paul was certainly aware of the obsessiveness of Olympic athletes but stressed that sacrificing for eternal, godly character was a far wiser investment.

The competitive spirit to dominate a competitor, not confined to athletic contests, militates against God's mandate that we esteem others over ourselves.

Passing on an Untruth

Commentary by John W. Ritenbaugh (1932-2023)

Ty Cobb was perhaps the best baseball player ever, but his reputation was destroyed by media hucksters. The entire narrative was a blatant lie.


Just Under the Skin

Commentary by Richard T. Ritenbaugh

The veneer of civility that covers civilization is thin, hardly able to conceal our carnal nature. That nature turns violent seemingly at the drop of a hat.


A City on a Hill (Part Two)

CGG Weekly by John Reiss

We may never be featured in a museum, receive a Medal of Honor, or be the subject of a movie, but we can still be outstanding examples with our own lives.
