Faith matters. We all have faith in something. I will touch on the subject of faith from time to time, as it is important to me.

Today I attended men’s conference called “No Regrets” at Elmbrook Church in Brookfield, WI. Close t0 5,000 men gathering to learn how to be better men, husbands, fathers, and overall better contributors to the society. The keynote speaker was Dr. Gordon MacDonald, author, speaker and a pastor. He challenged us to examine our thinking.

The race is always won or lost first in your mind

In addition there were several seminars to choose. “Guarding Your Heart and Mind,” “How to Love Your Wife,” and “Being a Christian in a Cynical World” are the ones I attended. Here are couple of thoughts and news I picked up:

Sex is good, but only within a confines what God has prescribed. Our generation is being over-sexed by the so called “adult industry” which rapes in $12 billion annually! And here is the shocking part –> it is more than Hollywood, NFL, NBA and Major League Baseball combined!

On cynical world:

The power of accurate observation is frequently called cynicism by those who don’t have it. – George Bernard Shaw

Our challenge is to be more authentic and to have integrity.

There were many more good thoughts and ideas presented. I hope that I will be able to apply some in my life.
