2012 PGA Show Breakfast

Dear Mulligan Society,

Did you know that every January more than 40,000 PGA Professionals, retailers and golf industry leaders come together in Orlando, Florida for the PGA Merchandise Show?  Throughout the years, this venue has provided FCA Golf the opportunity to connect with hundreds of golf professionals, vendors and ministry partners in a matter of a few days.  Over the past several years, the show has grown to include hundreds of Professional Golf Management (PGM) students (PGA Professionals in training) from universities around the country who attend in hopes of landing a job or internship with golf professionals who are present at the show.

Recognizing the opportunity FCA Golf has to minister to this group of aspiring young golf professionals, the inaugural FCA Golf PGA Show Breakfast was held Friday morning, January 27th, at the show.  In addition to having a hearty breakfast and learning more about the FCA Golf Ministry, students in attendance had the pleasure of hearing from nationally acclaimed, top 100 golf instructors, Mike Bender, Stan Utley and Brian Mogg.  In addition to sharing about their playing and teaching careers, each of these men shared how their faith in Jesus Christ has shaped their past experiences and influenced their personal lives and teaching careers today.  Over 100 students and professors had a wonderful time and helped build a great foundation for FCA Golf PGA Show Breakfasts in the years to come!

You are loved,

"Now to Him who is able to do above and beyond 

all that we ask or think--according to 

the power that works in you."

-Ephesians 3:20

Everyone knows the moment it happens.  The player can sense it; the caddie can only watch it and fans are in awe of it.  It's the instant when a golfer takes his or her game to a higher level during a round.  Something happens that catapults the player into a level of competitive performance where every skill is performed with perfection and every move is executed flawlessly.  The player's confidence rises with every second that goes by... and he or she literally becomes unstoppable.  The player is IN THE ZONE.

God desires each one of us to live our lives IN THE ZONE through unstoppable faith.  He calls us to a higher level of living that is much greater than simply living for ourselves.  What would your team or golf game look like if you lived your life IN THE ZONE for the Lord?  How would things change on your campus if you lived out an unstoppable faith in Jesus Christ?  Is this level of spiritual influence possible?  Absolutely!  It's time to live IN THE ZONE for Jesus Christ!
