what happens at the speedway


 

What happens at the speedway stays at the speedway.


Nah.  That is not true.  In fact the people that partner with Raceway Ministries are ready to do some awesome things and have some great conversations.  Please pray for this team.


2 Corinthians 13:14  NLT  

May the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, the love of God, and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit be with you all. 


We get to help people see and know the love of God.  Through acts of kindness and conversations, we will talk about life and how God’s love has impacted our lives.


Galatians 5:13  NLT  

For you have been called to live in freedom, my brothers and sisters. But don’t use your freedom to satisfy your sinful nature. Instead, use your freedom to serve one another in love.


This group will give of their time to serve others.  Through golf cart rides for those with mobility issues, giving away coffee and lemonade and snacks, through worship services and more we get to help others at the speedway and be ambassadors of Jesus.


John 12:32  NLT  

And when I am lifted up from the earth, I will draw everyone to myself.


We get to lift up Jesus, and that means that He will use our work and words to draw people to Him.


Plus it is almost Easter.  Next week we celebrate the greatest of all days when the Resurrection happened and gives us all hope.


Please pray for this team and those we will serve at Martinsville Speedway this weekend.  May God be lifted up.  May people hear about His goodness and love.  May lives be changed for eternity because of a few people who used an opportunity at the speedway to share the love of God!

Francis Chan's "Forgotten God" (brand new book)

One of the most powerful preachers, writers and leaders of our time, in my opinion, is Francis Chan.  His first book, Crazy Love , revolutionized my thoughts about God's love as well as my interacting with God.  Now it is time for a brand new book from Chan being released tomorrow, September 1st.  The book is Forgotten God .   This is a phenomenal book about the power that Christians and the church can and must tap into.  All of it is within the Holy Spirit.  Francis talks about the power that was seen in the book of Acts when the Holy Spirit began to move among people.  It is true that many have avoided or maybe forgotten what the Holy Spirit is all about.   And like the Savior who poured out His life and blood so we have reason to rejoice, we were made to lay down our lives and give until it hurts.  We are most alive when we are loving and actively giving of ourselves because we were made to do these things.  It is when we live like this that the Spirit of God moves and ac...

inspiration from C.S. Lewis

There are many people, past and present, who get our attention by what they write or say or share.  For me C.S. Lewis is one of those.  He was a prolific writer who continues to grab the attention of thinkers from many different points of view. Lewis first grabbed my attention when I was in 5 th grader, and our teacher, Mrs. Foy, shared The Chronicles of Narnia with our class.  It was a powerful time that this dreamer opened doors to thinking like I had never lived before.  He wrote of faith, of far off places and of strong figures who found their character rooted deep in God. C.S. Lewis was born in 1898 and died in 1963, 7 years before I was born.  It wasn’t until his 30’s that under the influence of his friend Tolkien that he came to be a Christian.  He was raised in a traditional church going home, turned away from God as an Atheist in his teen years and through trying to stay away from God and faith returned to God with...
