“To God be the Glory!” was said time and time again this season, in the playoffs and at the crowning of the new World Champion Philadelphia Eagles!  What a storybook ending for a magical season for an amazing, faithful group of guys!  In Deuteronomy 31:6, God said to Moses, “Be strong and steadfast, have no fear or dread of them, for it is the Lord, your God, who marches with you; he will never fail you or forsake you.  For you (Joshua) shall bring this people into The Promised Land.”  On Sunday night, it was MVP Nick Foles who led the team to Super Bowl Victory but another man, Carson Wentz got us to the place to cross the Jordan River.  So it is wonderful news that Head Coach Doug Pederson and Quarterback Carson Wentz are being honored for their roles in helping the Eagles reach and win Super Bowl LII at The 81st Maxwell Club National Awards Gala.

​

Pederson was named the Greasy Neale Professional Coach of the Year and Wentz the Bert Bell Professional Player of the Year Award.  Pederson is the third Eagles coach to lead the team to the Super Bowl and the only Eagles Coach to lead the team to a conference title in just his second year.  He’s compiled a 22-12 record, including playoffs, which is the best two-year start of any coach in franchise history.

​

Also in his second NFL season, Wentz established himself as one of the best quarterbacks in the league.  Wentz receives this award after setting an Eagles franchise record for touchdown passes in a season with 33, over 13 games completing 265 of 440 passes for 3,296 yards during the season.

​

Wherever you are on this journey of life, remember God is always with you, HE will never fail you or forsake you.  

​

Thank you Philadelphia Eagles for a magical year of performance and fun!  This is a year for the history books.

Congratulations to Super Bowl LII World Champion Philadelphia Eagles!
