Simple acts of kindness have profound consequences

Greetings!... I know I owe you Part 2 of John Stonestreet's "Why Kids Don't Get It." John is just back from Australia so we'll give him a couple of days break.
Instead, let's do a follow-up to our Jan. 9 issue about "the game"--when a Texas Christian school found itself in the spotlight by doing something totally unexpected.
Grapevine Faith is one of the 150 Christian schools in the U.S. that has hosted the Passing the Baton workshop for its faculty.
Ed Smith, Faith's head of school, e-mailed last week: "It
occurred to me that our faculty and staff accepted your challenge to 'Pass
the Baton'....a concerted effort
among all influencers to pass the baton simply works! Tracey and I are grateful
for your influence that continues to permeate the campus of Grapevine Faith."
"The game" was two and a half months ago. What has happened since then is amazing. Curious? Read on--and make it a great week!
