Training versus trying
Thoughts and images from the Rev Chris Bennett and John Ortberg on the apostle Paul's famous words in 1 Corinthians 9 about running the race to win the prize.
"I did it!! I ran (a bit of) the Belfast Marathon. Along with some of my chums from Holywood I was part of a relay team pounding the streets of Belfast in glorious May Day sunshine earlier today. And which leg did I run, you may ask? Ahem...the shortest one (3.5 miles). But I enjoyed it!
Going out for a few practise runs over the last week or two reminded me of the central illustration from one of my absolute favourite books, The Life You’ve Always Wanted by John Ortberg. So out came the trusty video camera…. (warning: this video contains scenes of extreme perspiration)."
