From the Gridiron to the Pulpit
Charles is a one-time football star in the state of Texas. He doesn’t
play football anymore, but he still loves the game. Now, instead
carrying a football to the stadium, he carries a Bible. Instead of
thrilling the crowd with a long touchdown run, he blesses them with a
word of hope, forgiveness and love.
As a high school player in Ranger, Texas, Charles rewrote the record
books. In his senior year he led Ranger to the state championship, rushing for
over 2,310 yards that year alone. He carried the ball 240 times for a 9.6 yard
average. Charles scored 186 points that season. He played all four years on the
varsity team.
Over 30 universities recruited the All-State tailback. He chose Hardin
Simmons University in Abilene, Texas. “That was because they
guaranteed me I would have an unconditional four year scholarship, and
they would see to it I had a place to preach every Sunday, and they
kept their word,” Massegee said.
At Hardin Simmons University Charles’ coach was the legendary Sammy
Baugh. Charles was the one of the starting half-backs for all four years. Charles set several records, including the most touchdowns in one game
and the longest run from the line of scrimmage. His career average was a 5.4
yard gain per carry. In those days Hardin Simmons was a member of the Border
Conference, which included Texas Tech, Arizona State, Arizona University, New
Mexico and Texas Western.
Dummy to Appear in Crusade
You may have seen them on television or
heard them on CD. Now you can have them in person in a Meet Jesus Crusade.
Erick, the youngest and most hard-headed member of the team, teaches and amuses
both young and old alike. Erick never fails to intrigue kids of all ages with
his unconventional views of well-known Bible stories and his perceptive insights
into the lives of the church members.
Erick is the wonder dummy manipulated by Beverly Massegee, national award
winning professional ventriloquist from Dallas, Texas. Charles and Beverly try
to involve every age group in their crusades. Everyone loves a good time. If
people will not laugh with you they will not worship with you. God can even use
a dummy to bring a person to Jesus.
