If you missed our Chapter Friday this past week, then you missed a parade of God’s trophies and an extraordinary exhibition of his grace and power. You missed:

  • George McGovern shared about his journey from being a “typical” and  “average” kid growing up in New Jersey and “following” men to “following” Jesus and becoming a spiritual advisor to champions as Chaplain for the New York Giants and the New York Yankees (and previously the Mets and Jets).  The turning point was a crisis in his life that God used to draw George to Jesus.
  • David Montoya in our “Keepin’ It Real” painted the picture of a hard-charging business guy who went from believing that death was the end (so why not live it up while you’re here) to realizing that he had many acquaintances but no real friends.  The turning point was a crisis in his life that God used to draw David to Jesus.
  • Chip Skowron, in his first Chapter Friday since leaving for Federal prison in early 2012, gave the opening prayer and was commissioned into his new role working at NCS to start “NCS Inside”–bringing the NCS model into prisons.

Our guest speaker, George McGovern’s talk is already available under Resources thanks to the amazing Rocky–click HERE.   George also showed us his two Super Bowl rings and his one NFC Championship ring.
