Congrats Jonathan Byrd!

Posted on July 16th, 2007 in Church Life, Encouragement by Fred McKinnon

Hey Everyone!

Just wanted to give a quick “shout out” of CONGRATS to Jonathan Byrd for winning the PGA John Deere Classic this weekend. Those who know me would say “well Fred, you’re not a golfer, never played golf, and never much followed golf”. However, I find myself as the Worship Director of a church where golf is big … and Jon is a faithful member of our church. The beautiful thing is seeing him win … one of our very own …, and although I missed it on TV yesterday, the report is that his interview after the match was full of giving praises to Jesus! You hear that from athletes from time to time, but I can vouch that this guy is walking the walk. The week before winning the Masters, Zach Johnson was at our church, too … so maybe that “winning anointing” is there! Of course, we are all WINNERS through Christ!

Bottom line – we sure are proud of our man, Jon Byrd! Congrats, bro – and we’ll be cheering for you in the British Open.

I’m back from my ministry trip to Dublin, and hope to post an update shortly, and yes .. even a VIDEO CONFESSIONAL .. so stay tuned!

For the Kingdom,
Fred
