Topics in this clip:
- I didn't have a personal relationship with Jesus and there was no fruit in my life at all
- Teammates Luke Edwards and Doug Juergens poured into me and showed me what it looks like to walk out the Christian life
- I gave my life to Jesus. It was actually Easter 2022.
- I saw my sin and I saw Jesus up on the cross and I was like, I want that. I can't save myself. I need Jesus.
- A few days later went to the ACC championship and it was just completely different. I was joyful. I had so much peace.
- Knowing that my identity doesn't have to be placed in a golf score
- Once I had a relationship with Jesus, he took me from literally eternal death to eternal life. My biggest problem had been solved. I didn't have to wait around for a 62 to be happy.
- I have a verse for every tournament or every day when I'm competing and just meditate on it
- When I'm behind the ball I have a verse in my head that I'm thinking of and praying through
- If I'm not meditating on that verse my heart is going up and down and I can't have peace in the bogeys
- Meditating on Scripture is just repeating the scripture and thinking simply how does this apply to my situation
- How does my eternity being secure affect how I can think about this shot on the 17th hole at Sawgrass hitting over water
- I've been changed a lot and shaped a lot through memorizing scripture on the golf course
