βWhen I get called to home to heaven one day, if all they talk about is this gold jacket and my career, then I failed miserably as a father, husband and a friend. You two are my legacy.β

Thatβs a wrap on Bulldog Basketball Camp β25. What a fun week of learning the game! A big thank you to all of our campers. A big shout out to our players that worked with these guys all week. Go Dawgs!

When we built education around standardized tests, we didnβt teach kids how to think β we taught them how to memorize, obey, and perform.
Now weβre seeing the results:
Adults who canβt handle disagreement without feeling attacked..
Adults who chase clout instead of character.
Adults who can pass a test but canβt pass a life test β like patience, self-control, or critical thinking.
Testing taught them how to follow instructions, not how to lead their own lives.
The real cost of "teaching to the test" isnβt lower SAT scores β itβs grown adults stuck in teenage mindsets, still waiting for someone to tell them what matters.

I build a teacher-student relationship through effective instruction and high expectations.

If Jesus Christ didnβt abandon you in his darkness, the ultimate darkness, why would he abandon you now, in yours?

If God already gave you His best, He has no reason to withhold the rest from you.

You can pass every student, inflate every grade, and scrap every test. But the real world wonβt care.
When you lower standards, youβre really just lowering studentsβ chances of future success.

Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us, to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, for ever and ever! Amen.

God is far more interested in developing a relationship with you than He is in giving you a concrete, detailed blueprint for your life. That's precisely why God isn't in the habit of giving blueprints. It's because He wants us to constantly lean into a relationship with Him.

Education says teachers need to use differentiation but uses standardized tests to create a cookie cutter student. Districts tell teachers to be innovative and creative but use a standardized eval to create a cookie cutter teacher. It's so frustrating, and now I want a cookie!

LeBron James has played 718 more games than Michael Jordan but still trails by:
2 less Championships
2 less Finals MVPs
1 less MVP
9 less Scoring Titles
3 less Steals Titles
3 less All-Defensive Teams
And never winning DPOY
It's always been about efficiency, not longevity. π

We only see a snapshot of life while God sees the whole thing. We often can't see what our circumstances are about, but God knows. That's who we are called to put our trust inβa God who knows the past, present, and future.
