Friendship, Failure and Finding Grace | Chris Putnam

A round of golf started their friendship. Business, pride and shame nearly ended it. In this episode of Bogeys and Blessings, Justin Whaley and Chris Putnam look back on a friendship spanning nearly 20 years. They talk honestly about the opportunity that brought them closer, the decisions and circumstances that created distance and the grace that allowed them to begin again. Chris also shares how apologizing for an ugly golf match brought healing years later—and how missing a four-foot putt showed him that God had changed the way he responds to losing. Sometimes our biggest bogeys become blessings. We just may not recognize them until much later. “Do not despise these small beginnings, for the Lord rejoices to see the work begin.” — Zechariah 4:10 What small moment in your life might matter more than you think? #BogeysAndBlessings #Friendship #Grace #GolfAndFaith #Forgiveness
