Hi Chris,
Believe I owe you an apology. If you were the person who posted a few days ago that you listed the Promisekeepers "promises":o) and asked my opinion, I apologize for not answering that post.
At the time there was a flurry of posts flying & I did make a brief search for the list because I'm curious to see them, but alas did not find them & even neglected to tell you so.
After sending this message, I'll check for the list again.
As for Bill McCartney, his life story is interesting. From an interview with him on TV a few months ago, here is my impression:
Correct me if this is wrong. He was accused of igoring his players criminal & brutal date rape. Then the media started to pummel his inaction to discipline them severely and as a result he lost his football coaching position. I'm not a sports fan, so let me know if these are not the facts.
In any event, it appears once he lost his coaching job he took the same skills he had used in that postion to form another team. A religious-inspired team. A person has to ask themselves if this wasn't taking adversity & finding a way to turn it into an opportunity for ones-self. Now, if he's sincere. Just wants to encourage better male/female relationships(with the woman treated as an equal in every way) then I'm all for it. Haven't investigated there motives any deeper than that.
I'm all for anyone who is sincere and not just promoting there own ambition.
I'll look for those 7 promises.
