No Other Rock

Epaphroditus my brother and fellow-worker and fellow-soldier. ~ Philippians 2:25

If you have ever watched pro wrestling, you know who Hulk Hogan is. He is a larger than life persona inside the theatrics of sports entertainment and his role has become more mockery than role model as the years have gone on.

No. I don’t have my blogs confused. I am blogging about Hulk Hogan on No Other Rock.

One of the things the Hulkster often stated during his “role model” years as a pro wrestler was “Train, Say Your Prayers and Take Yer Vitamins.” He wore a cross on a necklace around his neck and was the ultimate “Real American.”

As the years have gone on, Hulk has changed a bit. He dropped the “Train, say Your . . .” moniker and now seems to refer to everyone as “brother” - so much that it is almost every third word he says. It’s a source of parody and laughter for many.

But, as today’s devotion suggests . . . why aren’t we all referring to each other as our brothers? If we are both born again, we are brothers and sisters in Christ. Just as Paul was not afraid to call Epaphroditus a brother, we too should not be afraid to call each other our brothers and sisters.

Today, my prayer for you and I is that we will be not afraid to greet one another as brothers.
