We are always writing stories about our athletes when they are scoring baskets, making touchdowns, hitting homeruns, ect. However, we often miss the other important things these folks do while off the field of play. Tonight at a Fellowship of Christian Athlete meeting some of our athletes gathered to talk about the ultimate prize.
We sometimes forget that the trophies we win here on earth are not anything compared to the one we get when our work here is done. Yes, Salvation is the ultimate trophy. Tonight was the first meeting of the year for the University of Louisville FCA and this gives our athletes a great opportunity to share their testimony in an attempt to help fellow athletes reach that ultimate prize. Several athletes have accepted Christ into their lives and have been baptized thanks to this program.
I want to send out kudos to all those involved with the FCA at the University of Louisville and Chaplain Chris Morgan for the work he is doing for the student athletes on campus. Also to those athletes who are being spiritual leaders on and off the field of play using their gifts to bring glory to Christ. We have a great group of athletes to cheer for at the University of Louisville and things like this should not go unnoticed. Kudos again guys!
Be sure to give the University of Louisville Chaplain Chris Morgan a follow on twitter @UofLfca to follow the great work he is doing on the campus and with our student athletes. And I’m sure they would also be thankful for our prayers as well.
