Going the Distance with the Indy 500

As many of you know, the Indy 500 is an open wheel race. It's considered one of the best races to take place in a year. Each winner receives a trophy and the bottle of milk. Its an American tradition.

One thing you might not know is that NASCAR holds a race that same weekend. Only a few drivers have attempted to compete in both races. Tony Stewart is the only driver who holds the title of competing and finishing both races in a single day!



It hard to think of someone pushing themselves to the brink for just a silly race. Stewart worked very hard and only a small number knows that he accomplished this task. It's the same as our relationship with Christ. Christ has called us to push ourselves to the brink of our Christian walk. We need to run the race he has set before us. This Sunday we're calling all of you to bring someone you know. 500 people!!! How small a task with such a BIG God!!
