The foundation

 


This place here is special. Its more than the space, the locker rooms and the school. It's more than the success this Northstar team have had. It's about the people who walk through these doors, then walking out know this place is different. This place does have the holy spirit and God's favor to spread the gospel through the hockey world by the resources used in this building.

The people here are truly inspiring, not because of their wins. Their losses and struggles have motivated their passion to reach out to players, coaches, fans and even the mailman that is daily brought into the office to talk about faith and their salvation that they can receive through Jesus Christ. This team is a ministry working team wanting to learn the gospel and do their best every single day. 

During the summer time, not only do we help kids and men search for Christ, but us ourselves a brothers in Christ keep sharpening ourselves, keeping discipline and growing in confidence that after the summer when we go our separate ways that we can live by faith, not by sight.

The ripple effect

FCA Hockey has started ‘the ripple effect’ on social media that you can learn from here https://www.nscacademy.org/the-ripple-effect/ A ripple can be caused when you drop a rock in water. An uncountable amount of ripples follow the rock from the surface of the water to the bottom where the rock stops, yet the impact is still felt. We can use this example when implying our faith in God and what Jesus has sacrificed for everyone. His ripple has been a mighty wave for thousands of years. The ripple we're talking about from the article started with me in Allen, Texas when I witnessed the ripples a player named Gary Steffes spread for the glory of God. I then followed the kneeling prayer at center ice in home rinks, and on the blue line in away rinks. I’ve been doing that now for over 6 years now and have many players joining me over the years. My siblings for one have done this, and in youth hockey in TX and New England have many teammates, coaches, parents, refs, zam drivers, y...

Don't be scared to take a hit

   Sorry guys for not posting in a while, its been a crazy couple of weeks. Lets start with a story from the bible- Jonah    Jonah back in the day was a modern day prophet at his time in his 'mission trip' to assure people about the living God, his word, and his promises. He was a clever man and seemed to be fearless for God was on his side... Jonah 1 1-3 NLT "The lord gave this message to Jonah son of Amittai: “Get up and go to the great city of Nineveh. Announce my judgment against it because I have seen how wicked its people are.” But Jonah got up and went in the opposite direction to get away from the lord . He went down to the port of Joppa, where he found a ship leaving for Tarshish. He bought a ticket and went on board, hoping to escape from the lord by sailing to Tarshish."        So a man strong in his faith with God ran away... Isn't that ironic that sometimes when the odds are against us and we are destined to do the imp...

June Update

   Hello Everybody! Its been over a month since rejoining FCA Hockey for my internship for the second year. I live off one of the 10,000 lakes with a group of other interns this summer. It's been a blast and a blessing being on the ice, at the same time being challenged and stretched spiritually.    I am woke by the beautiful sunrise around 5:15-ish every morning. I the get ready for work, eat and read my personal devo, a chapter of the bible and be alone in prayed. Then depending on the day we leave the house at 7:20 to gt at the rink by 7:25 for a 7:30 player led devotion. Its the most critical part of the day, including with the wisdom walks principles, it has a emphasis on talking to people spiritually and building each other up. After we're done we get on the ice at 8:15 and have a fast pace, competitive practice ran every morning by Tim Jackman. After that we run 'the program' a on-ice/ dryland/ devotion program that ranges from squirts to high school players....
