Coach Tony Dungy started the day - the day his team was to play in the Superbowl - with something that took great priority over any trophy or fame. He shared the Gospel of Christ with everyone at that Superbowl breakfast. We think its difficult to share Christ at our work places... imagine HIS work place.

When they won, and he was handed the Heisman these were his words to the world watching ""I'm proud to be the first African-American coach to win this," Dungy said during the trophy ceremony. "But again, more than anything, Lovie Smith and I are not only African-American but also Christian coaches, showing you can do it the Lord's way. We're more proud of that."
I didn't care who won last night when I sat down to watch the game, I didn't know much about Dungy and had even forgotten about his son last year. but today I have great respect for him and his accomplishment. what a man. and what a great God!

Sarah--I don't know if I knew you had a blog! I will finally bookmark it at least.
I totally agree about Tony Dungy. Glad he was able to be in the game-winning position!!
Yay, Colts!
Me too! That was great to hear! We were amazed at the comment about "more importantly I'm a Christian". I also didn't care much about the game, but I'd like to add something. Let's not forget where Manning got his humble beginning... TENNESSEE! Now THAT'S important! :)
Josh and I watched Tony's testimony doc. the other day. Amazing!
I miss you too my dear Sarah. We will be driving all day on Friday to IN, and then Noah and I are continuing up to Chicago (my parents moved there) for the weekend. We'll be back on Tuesday though. Maybe we can do a lunch?!?! Let me know!!!!!!!
