Drop kick me Jesus through the goal posts of life
End over end neither left nor to right
Straight through the heart of them righteous uprights
Drop kick me Jesus through the goal posts of life.

Make me, oh make me, Lord more than I am
Make me a piece in your master game plan
Free from the earthly tempestion below
I’ve got the will, Lord if you’ve got the toe...

Drop Kick Me, Jesus by Bobby Bare

Doing a bicycle kick before the bicycle was invented? Just more proof that Jesus was divine...

Jesus made the goal, but the refs gave him the red card . . .

In always contemporary ways, Jesus reminds us of the goal of the Christian life.

"Well of course I was going to kick in the winning goal...would you want to head a ball wearing this crown of thorns?"

"...and Judas, always on the sideline after the 11-man team was fielded, watched as Jesus put the hurt on the Saducees."

My immediate thought was "drop kick me Jesus through the goal posts of life" but alas it was taken!

Great blog. I just found you and have enjoyed reading. Keep it up!
