Southview Daily Devotion from Pastor Kerry for Thursday October 15Th , 2020 Based on Micah 6:8 (NIV) Southview Daily Devotion from Pastor Kerry for Thursday October 15th , 2020 based on Micah 6:8 (NIV): …what does the Lord require of you? To act justly and to love mercy and to walk humbly with your God. “Walk Humbly” How’s your ‘walk with the Lord’? One of the most cantankerous managers in baseball history was Earl Weaver of the Baltimore Orioles. He’ll always be remembered for his heated arguments with umpires; but he also got into it with his own players. There was a game in which one of his church-going outfielders named Pat Kelly struck out with the bases loaded; and when Earl Weaver angrily confronted Kelly, the outfielder calmly responded, “ Coach, I hope you walk with the Lord one day” to which Weaver snapped back, “ Pat, I hope you walk with the bases loaded one day!” * You’ve probably heard the phrase “walking with the Lord” – its frequently used to refer to our relationship with God. In Micah 6:8, the prophet was trying to explain to his fellow-Hebrews that God wasn’t nearly as concerned with their offerings & sacrifices as their ability to display three qualities: “To act justly and to love mercy and to walk humbly with… God.” - Page 1 of 2 - The phrase ‘walking with God’ (or with ‘the Lord’) only appears about half-a-dozen times in the Bible; and Micah 6:8 is the only time we’re encouraged to “walk humbly with” God. Humility is a quality we’re all supposed to have as God’s children; (but for some of us who’ve been blessed with an ‘over-abundance of self-esteem’, humility remains a continual ‘opportunity for growth’). So… how is your walk with the Lord? Are you walking “humbly with your God” ? If I’m being completely honest with you, I would say my walk with the Lord is pretty good – it’s the humility part I need to keep working on (thank goodness God isn’t done with me yet). You keep praying for me, friends, and I’ll keep praying for you. Reflection & Prayer After reflecting on the words above, begin your prayer with: “God, this is how I feel about my “walk” with you right now. Please help me… …Amen.” ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- * After retiring from baseball in 1981, Pat Kelly became a minister. He was interviewed by The Baltimore Sun in 1994, and he shared that when the Orioles released him at the end of the 1980 season, he was amazed to receive a heartfelt letter from – of all people – Earl Weaver. He said that reading it, to this very day, “brings tears to my eyes. It showed a side of Earl Weaver that not many people know about.” - Page 2 of 2 - .

  • 2020 International League Field Managers Eight Il Clubs to Be Led by New Skippers This Season
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE February 11, 2020 2020 INTERNATIONAL LEAGUE FIELD MANAGERS EIGHT IL CLUBS TO BE LED BY NEW SKIPPERS THIS SEASON When the International League's 137th season opens on April 9, eight of the circuit’s fourteen teams will have a new manager leading the quest to capture the coveted Governors’ Cup trophy. Only six managers return from the 2019 season, although several of the League’s new field generals bring pre-existing ties to their teams and communities. It is the first time since 2006 that more than half of the circuit’s clubs changed managers during an offseason. The reining IL Manager of the Year Damon Berryhill is the International League’s longest- tenured manager, preparing to begin his fourth season at the helm of the Gwinnett Stripers. Also hoping to get his team back to the postseason is Brady Williams, who took Durham to the finals in his first year with the Bulls in 2019. They will be challenged in the South Division by another returning manager in Norfolk, Gary Kendall. The 2018 IL Manager of the Year, Lehigh Valley’s Gary Jones, will lead the IronPigs once again this season. Like Jones, Brian Esposito in Indianapolis is also at the helm for the third straight campaign. IL Hall of Famer Billy McMillon will manage the Red Sox for the franchise’s final season at McCoy Stadium in Pawtucket. Two men have found themselves moving from a coach’s role to the manager’s chair in 2020. Pennsylvania-native Doug Davis (former Syracuse manager) takes over in Scranton/Wilkes- Barre after three seasons coaching, while in Columbus, Ohio-native Andy Tracy is the new manager after helping lead the Clippers to the 2019 Governors’ Cup title as hitting coach.

  • Forty Years Later: Where the '72 White Sox Are Now
    Forty Years Later: Where The '72 White Sox Are Now By Mark Liptak and Paul Ladewski Posted on Friday, May 17 Forty years have passed since the 1972 White Sox team breathed new life into the franchise in one memorable season. Here's where the core players have been since then and where they are now: Cy Acosta, pitcher. The reliever spent three of his four major league seasons in a White Sox uniform. In 1973, his 18 saves ranked fifth in the league. The same year he became the first American League pitcher to bat in the designated hitter era. The 65- year-old resides in Mexico. Dick Allen, first base. He was the runaway winner in the 1972 American League Most Valuable Player vote, as he had career-highs in RBI (113), bases on balls (99) and on-base percentage (.420). The career .292 hitter played for five teams in15 seasons, after which he served as an advisor and instructor for several years. Now 70 years old, he resides in western Pennsylvania. Luis Alvarado, shortstop. In 1972, the Puerto Rican utilityman took part in a career-high 102 games. Two years earlier, the former International League Most Valuable Player was acquired in the trade that sent shortstop Luis Aparicio to the Boston Red Sox. Died at age 52 on March 20, 2001. Mike Andrews, second base. Also a part of the Aparicio trade, he started 143 games in the 1972 season, his last as an everyday player. One year later, he became the first DH in franchise history.

  • Amid the Shadows of Progress: Race and the Struggle for Metropolitan Democracy in Twentieth Century San Antonio
    Amid the Shadows of Progress: Race and the Struggle for Metropolitan Democracy in Twentieth Century San Antonio by Stephen Arionus A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (History) in The University of Michigan 2019 Doctoral Committee: Professor Matthew Lassiter, Chair Associate Professor Maria Cotera Associate Professor Matthew Countryman Associate Professor Anthony Mora Stephen Arionus [email protected] ORCID iD: 0000-0001-6634-7208 © Stephen Arionus 2019 Acknowledgements Graduate school is a collaborative process and I would not be here without the support, guidance, and friendship of so many wonderful people and terrific institutions along the way. My circuitous route to graduate school began at the University of Texas at San Antonio where I met a cadre of wonderful scholars and teachers. Marian Aitches encouraged her students to think broadly about the world and our place within it. She introduced me to the writings of Malcolm X, Sherman Alexie, and Winona LaDuke. But it was reading Howard Zinn’s words that changed my life. Kolleen Guy, Wing Chung Ng, Catherine Nolan-Ferrell, Brian Davies, and Anne Hardgrove taught me the fundamental skills of historical analysis. As did Elizabeth Escobedo, but she also taught me the importance of empathy. Pat Kelly was the consummate teacher and mentor. His zest for teaching and love of history was infectious, but it was his compassion and care for his students that made a nontraditional student like me dream bigger. There was no one more excited about my decision to go to graduate school than Pat Kelly.
