Game

Changer Title

We

all want to win, but sometimes the game gets away from us. When you

find yourself down in the 4th

quarter, you need a game changer.

A

game changer is a play that changes the momentum and ultimately the

outcome of the game.

In

the year 2019, I think we could use a game changer.

In

the last 2 weeks we told you that…

Serving

is a Game Changer

If

you want a successful 2019, then call this game changing play.

Last

Sunday we told you that Perseverance is a game changer.

Perseverance

is a Game Changer

There

are times when life hits you in the face, but you have to get back up

and try again. Every successful person has learned perseverance.

Our

example of a game changer today is Martin Luther King Jr

Martin

Luther King Jr

Tomorrow

is MLK day. It is a day to honor the service of Dr. King and we would

like to honor his work here today.

MLK

was a game changer, an American Christian minister and social

activist who was the most visible spokesperson & leader of the

Civil Rights Movement. Although our nation had ended a civil war and

freed people of color from slavery, there was still a huge divide in

our nation. In the middle of that divide Martin Luther King Jr stood

up and changed everything.

King

advanced civil rights through nonviolent tactics. He got this idea

from Christ by the way.

Large

groups of people are known to get violent very quickly. King gathered

large groups of people and they did peaceful acts. Don’t gloss

over this. He gathered large groups of men & women who felt

abused & forgotten, people who had anger about the past &

current conditions. It would be so easy for a group to turn into an

angry mob, yet King encouraged peace, love, and change.

In

1955 King led a bus boycott December 5th

1955 following the arrest of Rosa Parks who refused to give up her

seat on a bus. December 20th

1956 the Supreme Court declared segregated buses unconstitutional.

King was a game changer. He brought change that was largely

considered impossible. He made America a better place. He made the

World a better place. He made all of us better people. Thank you Dr

King.

In

1963 He helped organize the “March on Washington.” The National

Mall was filled with more than 200,000 people who gathered to call an

end to racism. It was at this march, standing on the steps of the

Lincoln Memorial, that King gave the speech everyone knows by name.

It was the “I have a dream” speech. This speech changed the

world.

It

is a short 6 page speech.. I want to remember a part of it to you

today.

“I

say to you today, my friends, that in spite of the difficulties and

frustrations of the moment,
