COT:
As a kid in the late 80s, I believed Shawon Dunston was the greatest shortstop in baseball. The only channel in my hometown showing baseball consistently was WGN, so when I formed my opinion on shortstops, Shawon Dunston was all I knew. I made the decision with all the data I had at the time.
Over the summer, when I started getting dropped off at the babysitter at like 6:30am, and I watched ESPN Sports Center on repeat for hours. With that, I gained new information, like Barry Larkin, Ozzie Smith, and Alan Trammel. New evidence challenged my opinion.
I remember thinking, even as a kid, that I couldn’t change my opinion. I had previously told everyone that Dunston was the best, so what would they think if I changed what I’d been saying? Also, I remember feeling that if I could be wrong about Dunston, what else could I have been wrong about?
When you form an opinion or make a decision, you do so with all the information you have at the time. But, we should recognize that we all do so with incomplete data. Over time, as you learn more information, you should use it and re-examine your opinion or decision. That can be hard, because there are social pressures that come changing what you’ve said, and personal stress of questioning what you’ve believed to be true.
Adam Grant write a book called “Think Again”, which gets into this concept at a deeper level than baseball players, so I encourage everyone to give it a read, or at least find a YouTube summary of the book. www.barnesandnoble.com/w/think-again-adam-grant/1137570667;jsessionid=9D0766EB363B1AD226CA5CB402E75340.prodny_store02-atgap16?ean=9780143138525

Genesis 2:15 The Lord God took the man
and put him in the garden of Eden to work it and keep it.
God’s first direction for us was literally
to work and maintain our garden. Sounds easy, but gardens are tough to maintain
and can easily becoming overrun by weeds.
This garden can also be a metaphor for our marriage, where things can get messy and overwhelming quickly.
Ephesians 5:25 provides guidance… Husbands love your wives, as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her.
As men we need to properly tend to our wives and families by praying for them, cherishing them, and complimenting them. The goal for marriage isn’t avoiding divorce, it’s to love your wife like Christ loved the church and be willing to sacrifice everything for her.
