My conversations have long been filled with sports, money, sports, girls and more sports.  And hunting and fishing.

Lately, I find my conversations are filled with more talk about God.  The odd part is that most of the conversations are with people I often spent time talking about sports, money, sports, girls, more sports, hunting and fishing.  And NASCAR. 

Why are we talking about God so much?  Well, the one thing we all seem to have in common is that something bad has come into our life and we finally reached a place where we had to be authentic, transparent, real with each other and we quit thinking we could hide from God and have started bringing him into our conversations as well as our lives. 

I spent part of Sunday afternoon talking with a new friend about God and the journey we were on and would have sat there for hours if time would have allowed.  I spent lunch on Tuesday talking with another friend and co-worker about God and discussing the revelations we both had as we read The Shack.  I sat on the porch of a house on Saturday talking with two of my dearest friends about something God is leading us to and how we are finding ways to go about answering the call. 

The talk is richer than all that other stuff, deeper than all of that other stuff, more rewarding and fulfilling than all that other stuff. 

I try to say as little as possible but if you want to get me talking, bring up God.  It’s my most favorite topic.

Grace and peace to you.
