Don’t miss this week’s Sunday night service as Chad Varga joins us to speak. Chad grew up in a broken home in the Detroit, Michigan area. He watched his mother violently abuse alcohol and drugs, and basketball soon became his escape from the troubled lifestyle that surrounded him. At the peak of his basketball career he began to feel that there was more to life than just shooting a jump shot or dunking a ball. He made the ultimate decision to give up what he had worked his whole life for. God blessed his decision, drive, and determination, and he founded and is currently president of InspireNow, an organization committed to providing public schools with outstanding character education assembly programs and resources that will inspire, motivate, and equip students to embrace strength of character as a lifestyle. Chad has received national recognition and has been named one of the six up-and-coming leaders in America. Service begins at 6pm, so be there to hear this inspiration and motivating speaker.
