‘Only believe’ and have faith
I hope you all had
a good start to your
school year! This week,
I want to tell you a
story about a little girl,
her father, and Jesus.
It is in the Bible, Mark
Chapter 5. It is about
a dad named Jairus.
Jairus had a daughter
who was very ill. In fact,
he was certain that she
was going to die, and
he would have done
anything in his power
to help her get well.
Jairus was a ruler in
the temple, and he had
heard about how Jesus
had been healing many
people, so when he saw
Jesus, he ran to meet
Him right away. He fell
at the feet of Jesus. “My
daughter is sick and is
about to die,” he said.
“Please come and place
Your hands on her; heal
her, so she can live.”

was hopeless! But Jesus
said, “Don’t be afraid,

you face what seems to
be a hopeless situation,
remember the words of
Jesus, “Only believe!”
Have faith.
Let’s say a prayer
together. Dear Father,
we are thankful for the
love that You have for us
as Your children. Help
us to remember that all
things are possible if we
only believe and trust in
You. In Jesus’ name we
pray. Amen.

Enjoying a life you didn’t expect
I began my fourth year
of college this week. But
I’m in a ﬁve-year Master
of Divinity program, so
it’s not exactly my senior
year. On Tuesday, Jordy
had an appointment for
her pregnancy. While
waiting for her to return
from seeing the OBGYN,
I read Systematic Theology. Thankfully, our
baby is looking good.
And so is my life. But it’s
looking a whole lot different than I expected.
Did you know it’s okay
to enjoy a life you didn’t
expect?
Proverbs 16:9 says,
“The heart of man plans
his way, but the LORD
establishes his steps”
(ESV).
I don’t know about
you, but I’m a planner. I
have a detailed ﬁve-year
plan on a PDF document. But whether my
life looks like that in ﬁve
years depends on God’s
plan for my life. And
sometimes that’s hard
for me to embrace.
Even still, God knows

The Associated Press

Today is Friday, Aug. 27, the
239th day of 2021. There are 126
days left in the year.
Today’s Highlight in History
On August 27, 1776, the Battle
of Long Island began during the
Revolutionary War as British
troops attacked American forces
who ended up being forced to
retreat two days later.
On this date
In 1859, Edwin L. Drake drilled
the ﬁrst successful oil well in the
United States, at Titusville, Pa.
In 1883, the island volcano
Krakatoa erupted with a series of
cataclysmic explosions; the resulting tidal waves in Indonesia’s
Sunda Strait claimed some 36,000
lives in Java and Sumatra.
In 1949, a violent white mob
prevented an outdoor concert
headlined by Paul Robeson from
taking place near Peekskill, New
York. (The concert was held eight
days later.)
In 1964, President Lyndon
Baines Johnson accepted his party’s nomination for a term in his
own right, telling the Democratic
National Convention in Atlantic
City, New Jersey, “Let us join
together in giving every American
the fullest life which he can hope
for.”
In 1967, Brian Epstein, manager of the Beatles, was found
dead in his London ﬂat from an
accidental overdose of sleeping
pills; he was 32.
In 1979, British war hero
Lord Louis Mountbatten and
three other people, including his
14-year-old grandson Nicholas,
were killed off the coast of Ireland
in a boat explosion claimed by the

Irish Republican Army.
In 1998, two suspects in the
bombing of the U.S. Embassy in
Kenya were brought to the United
States to face charges. (Mohamed
Rashed Daoud al-‘Owhali (mohHAH’-mehd rah-SHEED’ dah-ood
ahl-oh-WAHL’-ee) and Mohammed Saddiq Odeh (sah-DEEK’
oh-DAY’) were convicted in 2001
of conspiring to carry out the
bombing; both were sentenced to
life in prison.)
In 2001, Israeli helicopters ﬁred
a pair of rockets through ofﬁce
windows and killed senior PLO
leader Mustafa Zibri.
In 2005, coastal residents
jammed freeways and gas stations
as they rushed to get out of the
way of Hurricane Katrina, which
was headed toward New Orleans.
In 2006, a Comair CRJ-100
crashed after trying to take off
from the wrong runway in Lexington, Ky., killing 49 people
and leaving the co-pilot the sole
survivor.
In 2008, Barack Obama was
nominated for president by the
Democratic National Convention
in Denver.
In 2009, mourners ﬁled past
the closed casket of the late Sen.
Edward Kennedy at the John F.
Kennedy Presidential Library and
Museum in Boston. Jaycee Lee
Dugard, kidnapped when she was
11, was reunited with her mother
18 years after her abduction in
South Lake Tahoe, California.
Ten years ago: Hurricane Irene,
after striking Puerto Rico and the
Bahamas, pushed up the U.S east
coast, prompting evacuations in
New York City and leaving major
ﬂood damage in Vermont.
Five years ago: Republican
Donald Trump warned of a “war
on the American farmer,” telling

a crowd in Iowa that rival Hillary
Clinton wanted “to shut down
family farms” and implement
anti-agriculture policies; Trump’s
speech at the annual “Roast and
Ride” fundraiser for GOP Sen.
Joni Ernst came hours after Clinton received her ﬁrst national
security brieﬁng as the Democratic presidential nominee.
One year ago: Speaking on the
White House South Lawn, President Donald Trump accepted his
party’s renomination, blasting Joe
Biden as a hapless career politician who would endanger Americans’ safety and painting a grim
portrait of violence in American
cities run by Democrats; Trump
spoke for more than a hour to a
tightly-packed and largely maskless crowd. Hurricane Laura
roared ashore as a Category 4
storm near Cameron, Louisiana,
bringing 150 mile-an-hour winds,
torrential rains and a storm surge
as high as 15 feet; the storm, one
of the strongest ever to strike
the U.S., would leave more than
20 people dead in Louisiana and
Texas. A white supremacist who
slaughtered 51 worshippers at
two New Zealand mosques, Brenton Tarrant, was sentenced to life
in prison without the possibility
of parole; it was the ﬁrst time that
maximum available sentence had
been imposed in New Zealand.

and in the end, God used it
for His cause. One might say
of Jacob that he dug the well,
others drew the water, and God
used it for the Gospel of His
Son.
We never know for certain
how the things we do today
will affect others after. What
we should realize though is
that they will. We are making a
mark on the world around us,
inﬂuencing it and shaping it
in some way. This can work to
either the good or the bad.
Not everyone leaves the
world a better place for having
been here. Some leave behind
a legacy of sorrow and brokenness. If we are careless or
wicked in the seeds we plant,
there’s a distinct possibility of
leaving the world worse. On
the other hand, if we dig our
wells carefully, we can leave
the world better, having plant
seeds which others will beneﬁt
from, perhaps for many years
after we are gone. If we serve
God faithfully, digging wells
in His service, our work can
continue to beneﬁt others and
open doors, long after we have
left this mortal coil. God will
take the good that we do and
continue to increase it, year
after year, to His glory.
So what kind of wells are
we digging? Are we doing our
best to make the world around
us a better place? Will others
continue to beneﬁt from our
inﬂuence after we are gone?
Will our work serve to bring
glory to the Kingdom of God
and of His Son, now and in the
days to come?

Blue Devils, Spartans battle to 2-all tie
By Bryan Walters

bwalters@aimmediamidwest.com

CENTENARY, Ohio — Ultimately, they just traded goals.
Alexander and host Gallia
Academy competitively played
to a 2-all draw on Tuesday during a non-conference boys soccer match at Lester Field.
The Blue Devils (2-0-1) took
a 1-0 lead in the ﬁfth minute
as Maddux Camden netted

an unassisted goal, but Kyler
D’Augustino countered with a
goal 10 minutes later — tying
the game at one headed into
the intermission.
Brody Wilt netted a Camden
pass in the 46th minute, allowing GAHS to secure a 2-1 cushion early in the second half.
D’Augustino, however, scored
on a corner kick pass with
25:21 left in regulation, which
eventually left the game tied at

its 2-all conclusion.
The visiting Spartans
claimed a 12-10 edge in shots
and also took six of the 10 corner kicks in the contest.

Lady Defenders top Covenant
GALLIPOLIS, Ohio — The
Ohio Valley Christian volleyball team notched its ﬁrst
win of the 2021 campaign on
Tuesday with a 15-25, 25-18,
26-24, 25-22 victory over

visiting Covenant in a nonconference match in the Old
French City.
The Lady Defenders (1-2)
picked up the ﬁrst-ever varsity
win for ﬁrst-year coach Maddie Nance, and the hosts ultimately battled through numerous ties and lead changes in
each of the four games. Overall, OVCS scored only two
more points than Covenant in
the 3-1 match triumph.

Ava Facemeyer led Ohio Valley Christian with 14 service
points, followed by Christina
Dong and Kenzie Childers
with eight points apiece.
The Lady Defenders lost to
Team Ignite by a 25-13, 25-20,
25-14 count the night before.

Rio announces
men’s basketball
recruiting class
By Randy Payton
For Ohio Valley Publishing

RIO GRANDE, Ohio — University of Rio
Grande men’s basketball head coach Ryan Arrowood has announced his recruiting class for the
upcoming 2021-22 season.
The RedStorm have added guards Cody
Lantz (Shelby, OH) and Luis Herrera (Puerto
Plata, D.R.), in addition to wingman Khamani
Smith (Fort Wayne, IN) and post player Exauce
“Manny” Manissa (Pointe-Noire, Republic of the
Congo).
A late addition to the list included guard
Eythan House (Melbourne, Australia).
“We’re really excited about the class as a
whole,” said Arrowood, who’s preparing for
his second season as the program’s head coach.
“Immediately, we’ve added depth that we didn’t
have last year. I thought our biggest weaknesses
last season were length, strength and size and
we feel like we’ve addressed all three of those
issues.”
The 6-foot-3 Lantz, who played at Shelby High
School, averaged 15.5 points per game during
his senior campaign, while Herrera — who also
stands 6’3 — comes to Rio Grande from Monroe
(NY) College by way of Teays Valley Christian
School in Scott Depot, W.Va., where Arrowood
coached before coming back to his alma mater.
He averaged 6.1 points and shot 42 percent from
the ﬁeld during the 2019-20 season.
“Cody is very athletic and was one of the top
15 shooters in the state last season,” Arrowood
said. “Luis is a really talented kid who played
for me at Teays Valley. He had ﬁve D1 offers, but
elected to go the JUCO route because of his ACT
score and then he didn’t get to play last year due
to COVID. He knows what we’re all about and
he’ll have three years of eligibility.”
Smith is a 6-foot-6 wing who played his high
school basketball at Fort Wayne Northrop, where
he earned First Team All-District honors after
averaging 18 points, ﬁve rebounds and four
assists per game as a senior.
Manissa is a 6-foot-9 power forward who played
at First Love Christian Academy in Washington,
Pa. after beginning his prep career at West Oaks
Academy in Orlando, Fla. He had eight offers
from NCAA Division I schools.
“Khamani is a kid who has a huge basketball
I.Q. and who’s very passionate about the game.
He’s a long, versatile kid,” said Arrowood. “After
everything that went on with COVID last year,
the D1’s who were looking at Manny wanted him
to play post-grad this year, but he chose to come
to Rio over playing post-grad or going the JUCO
route. He’s a big-bodied kid who has some skills.
He might be a bit of a project but, with all of the
attention he was getting, I think that says something.”
House is a 6-foot-3 guard who played most
recently for Melbourne’s Kilsyth Cobras 18-under
team.
“Eythan is a big, strong guard. We’re excited to
see exactly what he could be,” Arrowood said.
Arrowood also announced that Cal Cistaro has
been elevated to the position of Associate Head
Coach, while Cody Buchanan becomes a varsity
assistant coach and Ben Roberts joins the staff as
an assistant coach and junior varsity head coach.
Randy Payton is the Sports Information Director at the University of
Rio Grande.

Cincinnati Reds’ Jonathan India hits a three-run home run during the fifth inning of a baseball game against the Milwaukee Brewers on
Thursday in Milwaukee.

Reds defeat Brewers 5-1
By Andrew Wagner
Associated Press

MILWAUKEE — Jonathan India hit a three-run
homer, Nick Castellanos
also went deep and the
Cincinnati Reds beat
the NL Central-leading
Milwaukee Brewers 5-1
on Thursday to avoid a
three-game sweep.
Sonny Gray allowed
three hits in six scoreless
innings for the Reds, who
still trail the Brewers by
8 1/2 games. Cincinnati
does hold the second NL
wild card spot.
Gray (6-6) struck out
six while walking only
two batters and didn’t
give up his ﬁrst hit until

Avisail Garcia’s two-out
single in the fourth. In
the sixth, he loaded the
bases with two outs but
got Rowdy Tellez to
ground out to ﬁrst.
It was the second
consecutive scoreless outing for Gray, who hasn’t
allowed a run in his last
13 innings.
Brewers starter Brett
Anderson (4-8) worked 4
2/3 innings before leaving
the game with tightness
in his right hip. He was
charged with three runs
on four hits with a pair
of walks and three strikeouts.
A leadoff single and an
error by Anderson set the
stage for India’s three-run

homer off Hunter Strickland in the ﬁfth. The
rookie’s 17th homer this
season made it 4-0. Castellanos led off the sixth
with his 24th.
Luis Urias led off the
seventh with his 17th
homer for Milwaukee.
Trainer’s room
Reds: Tejay Antone will
undergo Tommy John
surgery for the second
time in his career and
miss the remainder of the
season as well as most
of 2022. The reliever
announced the news
on Twitter Thursday.
Antone returned from a
52-game injured list stint
on Tuesday but left the

game after throwing ﬁve
pitches and was placed on
the IL again Wednesday
with elbow discomfort.
Brewers: Shortstop
Willy Adames (left quad)
could return to action
Friday when the Brewers
open a three-game series
at Minnesota, manager
Craig Counsell said.

caps reduce the severity of impact
blows to the head by about 10%.
Currently, more than 200 colleges are using them, including all
top ﬁve ranked teams in the country. More than 1,500 high schools

Jesus
From page 3

And we certainly cannot even hope to
live upright lives until He speaks to our
need and enables us to do so.
A living metaphor (a true event that
illustrates masterfully a timeless principle) is Jesus’ encounter with a suffering
woman in Luke 13:10-13.
“Now He (Jesus) was teaching in one
of the synagogues on the Sabbath. And
there was a woman who had had a disabling spirit for eighteen years. She was
bent over and could not fully straighten
herself. When Jesus saw her, He called
her over and said to her, ‘Woman, you
are freed from your disability.’ And He
laid His hands on her, and immediately
she was made straight, and she gloriﬁed
God” (Luke 13:10-13 ESV).
Whether or not you buy into a literal
demonic presence which prevented this

woman from being able to stand upright
(and I personally believe it was so), the
deeper signiﬁcance is that something was
wrong in her life, something that disabled
her in that it prevented her from leading
a fully productive and thoroughly enjoyable existence. In this case, it seems to
have physically impaired her ability to
stand erect. Imagine going through your
life doomed to stoop over, stifﬂy and
painfully bent and tormented even at rest!
Many today ﬁnd that, while physically they can stand upright, emotionally and spiritually they are hunched
over and bound to think perpetually of
earthly things just as surely this woman
was bound to stare at the dry and dusty
ground at her feet. And for some, there
may also be a literal, as well as a ﬁgurative, spirit that disempowers their capacity to walk uprightly, encumbering them
with heavy weights of hate, fear, regret,
or addiction.
But Jesus is the Great Enabler – not in
the sense of modern psycho-therapeutic

lingo, but rather in the opposite sense of
His breaking away those things which
disable a healthy and proper living. He
enables us to approach the Father in the
spirit of purifying forgiveness. He enables
us to have courage in the face of fearful
circumstances. He enables us to have
hope when all seems lost and forlorn. He
enables us to walk uprightly in matters of
character and live lives of integrity.
Today the word “enabler” tends to refer
to someone who encourages our living
a self-destructive lifestyle and promotes
for us only a distorted and broken vision
of what we’re supposed to be. But Jesus
makes us able to become what we should
have been all along.
