What an amazing weekend! I had the opportunity to be a huddle leader for the high school wrestling. The camp was ran by NCAA Champions and D1 head coaches. Check out this line-up:
Don't worry I had to do a double take too. But, yes, that does say Jordan Burroughs- Olympic Gold Medalist. And, yes, he was there.
I don't usually get to star struck but when @alliseeisgold showed how he sets up his double leg I was more excited than a kid meeting Santa Clause the first time.
That's not to mention the other huddle leaders which included D1 starters from U of I (BJJ Fuetrell, Caleb Ervin, Daryl Caldwell) and UTC starters (Zach Bridson & Nicko Brown).
It was so cool seeing how many stud wrestlers r on fire for Christ! We had the opportunity to share about faith with high school wrestlers. That was by far the coolest part!!

That's the Chappell where we dug into the word and learned that, in life, there are two roads we can take:
"Enter by the narrow gate. For the gate is wide and the way is easy that leads to destruction, and those who enter by it are many. For the gate is narrow and the way is hard that leads to life, and those who find it are few. (Matthew 7:13, 14 ESV)
We are called to seek Christ and live a full and righteous life for Him. It's not gonna be easy but the reward is etrnal. And the good new I'd that we don't have to do it alone!
"For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life. (John 3:16 ESV)
When we choose Jesus we have eternal life. If we choose to live for ourselves when the winds blow and the storms come the house will fall. Jesus said;
"Everyone then who hears these words of mine and does them will be like a wise man who built his house on the rock. And the rain fell, and the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on that house, but it did not fall, because it had been founded on the rock. And everyone who hears these words of mine and does not do them will be like a foolish man who built his house on the sand. And the rain fell, and the floods came, and the winds blew and beat against that house, and it fell, and great was the fall of it." (Matthew 7:24-27 ESV)
