Years ago, Galen led chapel services for the Wake Forest University football team while Jim Caldwell was the head coach. Now Jim is the assistant head coach and quarterbacks coach for the Super Bowl champion Indianapolis Colts of the National Football League.
We went to see Jim
the last weekend of September, and Galen was able to give a devotional message to the Christians on the Colts roster. We also were able to see the Colts defeat the Denver Broncos 38-20. There are a lot of great guys associated with the team, and it's a shame that the news media doesn't give more attention to professional athletes who strive to live their lives for the Lord.
Just a few of the guys who come to the prayer service in the team hotel are well-known players like Jeff Saturday (center), Hunter Smith (punter), Dallas Clark (tight end), and Bob Sanders (safety). We were very appreciative that Tony Dungy, the head coach who published a great book this summer called
Quiet Strength, took time to visit with us as a family and to take the picture up at the top. Lori was still recovering from her foot surgery but still managed to get around okay. Caroline stayed in the hotel with a babysitter during the game, but she still wanted to wear her Colts cheerleader outfit and watch the game on TV to show her support.
