For years I went to church and searched for whatever God could offer. I thought of myself as a Christian, but now I know that I wasn't leading a Christian life.

During my rookie season with Minnesota I decided to go to a chapel program for players and coaches. The speaker told us about the difference that Christ had made in his life. While I sensed that I had been blessed with more wealth and notoriety than he would ever have, I became jealous of the joy and peace that his life reflected. Wanting to find out more, a Viking teammate later told me what I needed to find such contentment. I prayed to receive Christ as my personal Savior.

I now feel more whole as a person. I have more to offer those that I love the most -- my family, friends and relatives. I now experience the joy and peace that only Christ can provide, knowing that wherever I go, or whatever I do, He is with me.

Are you enjoying peace and joy in your life? Rich Gannon was jealous of teammates who had what he was missing. You can experience this by knowing Jesus Christ in a personal way by clicking here.
