In a sermon called The Power of God’s People by Tony Evans, he illustrates the importance of both being gathered and scattered…“In football they have a huddle, the goal of the huddle is to give you thirty seconds to call the play, that is why they give you a huddle. At a professional football game there may be 60,000 watching you huddle. They don’t mind you taking thirty seconds to call the play. They understand that you have to get organized, you have to know where you are going to go. The receivers need to know where they are going to go. The quarterback needs to know where he is going to go. The backs need to know where they are going to go. A huddle is a necessary part of playing the game.

Introduction:

Michael Vick, quarterback for the Atlanta Falcons, is in the news for allegedly owning and operating a dog kennel that produces fighting dogs trained to kill. http://www.bloomberg.com/apps/news?pid=20601039&refer=columnist_woolner&sid=ax1H7mQbjxyU

According to ESPN.com Vick’s involvement with dog fighting is nothing new. ESPN reports in part, “Our confidential source said he’s [Michael Vick] been involved in dogfighting for more than 30 years. He has trained and fought — by his estimation — about 2,000 pit bulls and was poised to tell ‘Outside the Lines’ about the time in 2000 when his dog squared off against a dog owned by someone he referred to as one of the ‘heavyweights’ of the dogfighting world: Atlanta Falcons quarterback Michael Vick.
