I ONCE WAS
Stories of life transformation from the pro sports world
***
Greg Morgan has long been terrified to fail. One year, after breaking his arm playing rugby and with nothing to do while his teammates played, he pulled out a small book of the New Testament someone had recently given him. As he read about Jesus’ life in the Book of Mark, he became furious. If what Jesus said and did was true, why had no one ever told him? Soon thereafter, Greg attended a church and heard an explanation of the cross and why Jesus died. That Jesus would die for him broke his heart. So that morning, Greg gave his life to Jesus Christ. Failure no longer needed to drive him because he now knew that he was deeply loved by God.
Watch the video above to hear Greg Morgan tell his “I Once Was” story.

We’re all in the middle of a story, and whether we admit it or not, we want our stories to matter. It’s those stories of deep and lasting impact that come to life when a person encounters Jesus, and responds to Him by faith. “I Once Was” invites those in the pro sports world to share their own transformational stories, describing the very moment that changed their lives forever.
