We are challenged every day with adversity. We would like to think we are in control of all that transpires in our lives; however, we are not in control, but God is. Faith allows us to discern what God is accomplishing in our lives. Faith gives us confidence to trust in Him. Soul Food reminds us all that faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of that which we cannot see. It provides for us a means of expression that brings us hope.

Football is one vehicle that provides a competitive environment. It is a tough, hard-nosed sport. As Soul Food expresses, a team must come together regardless of backgrounds, race, money, family structure, and cultural differences. Soul Food addresses relationships on a team, and within a family, which is what a great team should resemble.

Soul music expressed passion and concern for all. Love keeps us pursuing the best in those we encounter. As MLK said, "I dream of the day when my children are not judged by the color of their skin, but by the content of their character!"
