a need to share

I am not sure that anyone will read this as I have not posted in so long, I just have to express.

I must say that there is been building a new kind of orphanage in our culture, although the parents are physically in the home, they are neither present, nor intimately involved in the life of their child.

Also, baseball being every night of the week. There is a brokenness when baseball practice becomes a substitute for church community. I am having hard time understanding the need for a kid to "HAVE TO BE" at practice every night of the week. I have heard the excuse, "I have to be there or I can't play", to which I say, "ok". Would the player who would challenge the process please stand up. When will the fellowship of believers and the body of Christ no longer be second to baseball practice.
