Pastors, it’s not fair to call what your church is going through a “valley” or a “battle” when it is a direct result of mishandling sexual abuse allegations. That’s just called justice.

I haven’t shared this much publicly, but our church has been in the process of a merger for the past few months. Tomorrow, their church votes on merging into ours. This would give us a building free and clear as well as a few families from their membership. Would you pray? ❤️👊

THIS. Flip came back expecting Duke to land a rim protector at the 5 in the portal. It didn’t happen. So he played (and defended) out of position all season. He’s going to be a heck of a pro…spending a lot of time spacing the floor on the perimeter.

Some thoughts on Flip’s run it back year: 1. He wanted to and was more comfortable playing as a stretch four. Team needed him to play center. 2. He’s more Robin and his team needed him to be Batman.
