Episode description

Baseball legend Yogi Berra was once struggling in a tied game, bottom of the ninth, two outs.  The opposing batter stepped into the box and used his bat to draw a cross in the dirt. Berra quickly wiped the religious symbol off the plate. A Catholic as well, he said to the batter, “Why don’t we let God just watch this game?”

Can you resonate with Berra? It’s so common to see people trivialize religion by petitioning God selectively and selfishly.

However, we can also take comfort today in the fact that God’s involvement in our lives is not simply that of a spectator.
