The Players Championship in in town this week. This is a PGA tour event that brings the world's best golfers to Jacksonville. It is one of the premier golf events on the tour.
This morning I went to the FCA golf breakfast with some of the leaders in our golf ministry and some staff.
The incredible thing about this event is that it was full of local high school and college golf teams. The received a one day pass to see the practice rounds today if they attended the breakfast. Our church sponsored our local high school golf team to attend.
Tom Lehman was the keynote speaker and the event was attended by many pro golfers who will be competing this week.
The theme to Lehman's talk was "It doesn't matter where you start. It matters where you end." He shared his story while giving key points of never giving up...in golf or life. It takes passion and commitment to acheive the goals you have. They will keep you going through tough times when you feel like quiting.
He wrapped up his time by clearly laying out the plan of salvation. I was amazaed at the opportunity God provided to share His love with all of those local teenage golfers who were there just to watch the practice rounds later in the day.
