Bringing the Word Wednesday!

Fear is overcome by faith...



At our church, we are continuing our Fearless series. This past Sunday, we had the opportunity to hear from Scott Rigsby, a double amputee who completed the Hawaii Iron Man. So amazing to meet him and hear his story, from the accident that took his legs to his incredible physical accomplishments. One thing he told us that really stood out for me is 'Today's unthinkable are tomorrow's realities'. He was able to push past fear in order to achieve his goals. As we were watching his video in the service, watching his legs tap the pavement as he ran, I kept thinking "Why is he all alone? Didn't he have a friend or someone to swim, bike and run along with him?" Then it dawned on me.... Scott wasn't alone.
