I was sent this quote this week and loved it! 

Regarding Tiger Woods - “I love Tiger’s competitiveness, dedication and determination.
How many athletes who have been recognized as the best in the world have
changed their games not once but twice to improve?”
–Rick Barry, Hall of Fame Basketball Player

It makes me think of two things. 

First, how many people are willing to take the risks necessary to re-invent themselves?  From a 3:9 perspective, if you are successful and motivated and life is going pretty good, why do something like 3:9 and try to re-invent yourself?  I think it is because life demands it.  As humans, we constantly grow and learn and change.  Maybe everything is going great at work but not at home.  Maybe your home life is perfect, but at work you are challenged.  Maybe everything is great, but you have that deep yearning to reach the “next level”, whatever that is!  From the response we have seen already, no-one has an area of their life where “changing the game” would be unwelcome.

Second, how many of us “change our games” once we have accepted Christ?  Do you know what God wants from your life?  Do you know what talents he has blessed you with and expects you to use?  Are you aware of things that are holding you back from real and powerful relationships with other people?  God has a plan for you, but it’s your choice whether or not you want to fulfill it.  My experience suggests that you already know the answer!
