This morning we are going to look at how Jesus handpicked the most unlikely team for a very unlikely job as we look at the Recruiting Violations of Jesus. Join me in prayer before we begin.

This past week the N.I.T., the women's and Men's NCAA basketball tournament began. 64 teams trying for the number position in all of collegiate basketball. By now you probably know that the Fighting Illini were defeated in the first round last Thursday night, it was a rough night for everyone I'm sure. I know my wife could hardly sleep from disappointment. It was a disappointing end to a season that was characterized by many disappointments, one was they let Iowa beat them, but it was a season marred by the allegations of recruiting violations in the form of "pay-offs" to the athletes.
In the midst of the excitement and hoop-la of the basketball season, the most important and significant day is a day that a ball is not dribbled, a basket not shot. This all-important day is the day a 17 or 18- year-old high schooler signs his National letter o ...
