The INDYCAR Ministry and my Involvement

The Indy Car Ministry provides chapel services at each track where the Indy Car, Indy Lights, Pro Mazda Championship, and USF2000 series race. Chapel services include Christian music, Holy Communion, prayer, and a biblical message. We provide prayer and counseling support to drivers and team members. Bible studies are also provided at some of the race shops.

The Joy of Your Salvation!

Below is a brief summary of today's Chapel message front the Autobahn in Joliet, Ill. We had one on track incident that required one of our driver's to be transported to a local hospital. Through God's providential protection, he is going to be OK... Thanks for your prayers....

Joy, related to happiness - happiness requires the right circumstances where joy does not. Jesus Christ felt joy though He faced heavy trials.

The joy of Jesus was His absolute self-surrender and self-sacrifice to His Father— the joy of doing that which the Father sent Him to do as recorded in Hebrews 12:2, "Let us fix our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy set before him endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God."

The “joy set before him”….

This joy is not dependent on circumstances
This joy is everlasting
This joy is eternal

Do you have this eternal joy?

Look to Christ......

In a conversation today at the track, it was obvious that this person was looking to man, not to Christ for as an example of "what is right". I responded by saying people are just people... We need to look to Christ and his example....... It says in John 2:24-25 that "Jesus would not entrust himself to them, for he knew all men. He did not need man's testimony about man, for he knew what was in a man." Look to Christ. He is the perfect example......

The USF2000 series had two safe practice sessions today. Qualifying at 8:00AM tomorrow with the Chapel service at 10:30 and the first race of the weekend at 1:05.
