For those who are wondering what he said....

I found someone who blogged about the NASCAR race Saturday night and they included Pastor Dave Engbrecht's invocation. So, if you're wondering...here's what his prayer was before some 160,000 people.

Series: NASCAR Nextel Cup Series
Race: Sharpie 500
Date: August 26, 2006
Invocation Delivered By: Dave Engbrecht
Organization: Nappanee Missionary Church
Title: Senior Pastor
Denomination: Evangelical Christian
Specific References to Jesus Christ: Yes (TWICE!)

�Lets pray together. Heavenly Father, we thank you for this beautiful night where we can enjoy the greatest of races. Thank you that you’ve given us grace through your son Jesus Christ. Thank you for the hope that we can have for this life and through eternity. And now Father, I pray protection. I pray protection for each of the drivers, their crews and all of the race officials, and may we, as we run the race of life, run powered by your holy spirit. It’s in the name of Jesus we pray. Amen.�

Pretty Awesome!
