Words do Matter

We all face obstacles in our lives. Most of us are able to walk and communicate without giving it a second thought. Kevin and Marla Pace are an exception to that rule. I met this lovely couple this morning and had a time of fellowship and prayer with them. Despite huge challenges in their lives, they have the resolve to move forward for the glory of Christ. Their attitude reminds me of what Paul said in Philippians 4:13, "I can do all things through him who strengthens me."

Take a moment to check out the story of Kevin and Marla Pace on their website below. Be sure to watch the special that was done by an Indianapolis TV station. If you feel led, support their ministry by purchasing some of their work.

They have graciously donated one of their framed prints for the INDYCAR Ministry silent auction to be held later this year at our golf tournament.

Thanks Kevin and Marla. You are truly an inspiration led by God Himself!

Fix Your Eyes on Jesus!

This is an excerpt from the sermon message yesterday at Barber Motorsports Park....

When Jesus was on his way to Jerusalem, he was set out resolute for the cross. His triumphant entry into the city was followed by his last supper with the apostles. He went to pray in the Garden of Gethsemane and was captured there. He was taken to the house of the high priest Caiaphas for his mock trial. Pontius Pilate then handed him over to be flogged. He carried his own cross to the hill on Golgotha where he was crucified for us.

Jesus set his eyes on the cross. Jesus was faithful to the finish. He was faithful to the finish for us. Will you be faithful to the finish in your life? The only way to insure that you are is to look to the author and perfecter of our faith. Fix your eyes on Jesus. Do it today.
