Week 5: Go Beyonders!

 

                                          1 Passion         Sports

                                       + 1 Burden      +Disabled Children and Adults

                                      = Beyond         Opening a gym for the disabled

This is the Beyond equation. It is as simple but yet complex as this. In other words, find the special abilities that God has given you. Then search your heart for what pains it the most. Ask God how you can mingle the two and the result can be life altering for you and others.

This innovative Beyond idea was created by Nix. He said his burden or his “big deal” was anything that had to do with sports. His burden took him back to younger days when he could remember a soccer league in his hometown hosting a camp to teach children how to play soccer. Nix said he recalls feeling amazed “by the light I saw in those kids eyes when someone took the time of day to teach a sport that they love.” Therefore, he came up with the idea to open up a gym for disabled children and adults who love to play sports and workout but have no other place to go besides their physical therapist.

Nix said this idea has been on his heart for sometime but he is still praying about it. He said he hopes one day it will go into effect.

And this is how a Beyond is born! Nix has his idea now he is surrounding it with prayer. I encourage all of you Beyonders to follow Nix’s example and pray earnestly everyday for your Beyond. Then ask him what steps need to be taken in order to turn your idea into reality.

Go Beyonders Go!
