My vote for Australia’s player of the tournament is Lucas Neill. He was solid in every game and it was disappointing to have such a poor penalty called against him.
Australia had a brilliant tournament and dominated every aspect of the game last night… except for the score sheet!
For me the greatest moment of Australia’s [...]
This terrible tragedy helps to put losing a soccer match into perspective.
This is what Croatia will be doing in a few hours… going backwards… (Hrvatska is Croatia in Croatian).

During this World Cup I have been very disciplined in getting up to watch the soccer at 5am in the morning… hits has been particularly impressive on the nights where I’ve watched a game the night before (therefore getting 3 hours sleep!). This morning was difficult to get up… yet I still did.
Statement: [...]
Last night at growth group we again prayed for a group at the World Cup (as well as Botswana and a family from church going there for a couple of years). This week’s group: GROUP G. We prayed for SPAIN that the gospel would go forth in the midst of rampant secularism and [...]

We had REVIVE on the Poddy on Friday night. They were pretty cool guests and this was a pretty cool episode. Find out about it here… download it directly here… or subscribe with iTunes here…Grace out.

This is my next-door-neighbour’s cat Lilly. I hate cats… but I’m in love with Lilly! I’ve decided that she is my Guardian Angel-cat. There will be times when I won’t see her for weeks and then she will appear at a time when I’m pretty down. She calms me down and relaxes [...]
Tonight at Growth group we prayed for group D at the world cup (we also prayed for Equador and some missho’s from church). This included. Portugal, Mexico, Iran and Angola. It’s great to watch the world cup and then reflect on something bigger than the football status of a nation: their spirituality. [...]
Aus v JapWhat a great game with Australia vs Japan. Australia deserved the victory with much of the posession and the most enterprising play. I did a lap of my parent’s lounge room after each of Australia’s goals as if I’d scored the goal! I think I even beat Aloisi in pulling [...]
