Many of my students think that they can read-my-mind.  They can’t read-my-mind but they can read-my-racket.  Instead of merely “guessing” where the next ball is going, they should be watching my racket and adjusting based on what they “see”.

Diary of a 10-Year-Old (Part II)

By Sarah Jalli

 
 
 
 
It is a great experience to be at the 2016 Womens World Cup. I arrived on Friday and watched a few group matches. Here are a few things that I learned from watching the group matches. 
 
 
 
 
1. Most of the players's serves are half long and short.
 
2. Most of the players used their surprise serve at key points. Their surpise serves were often long and fast with some variation of spin.

Why I’m going to the World Cup?

Bible Question of the Week

 
 
 
 
 
If Jesus says in the Bible that He is the Way, the Truth, and the Life and that no man can go to God but through Him, then how do people who haven’t heard about Jesus go to heaven?
 
 
I have heard this question many times.  I will answer it in a moment.
 
First, I’m going to ask you a question…
When you see a building, how do you know there was a builder?  The fact that the building exists is proof of the builder.  You can’t have a building without a builder.
