Scott Parkinson, President of PanicREV Ministries, explained, "We've been reaching out to people at the local level for five years now. We're really excited about this opportunity to grow and love on a national audience. This is a huge opportunity for us to give people another option instead of participating in the trouble that naturally occurs when people don't have something better to do. So far it seems to be something people have a heart for and we are praying that God moves in a big way. If you are a person that believes in prayer, please pray for us and all the riders while we are in Mammoth."

Mammoth Update 2008:

Perhaps you have already realized that Mammoth was one of the last national races to lack a Christian ministry presence; we at PanicRev noticed this, prayed, and now our prayers have been answered. After years of praying and trying to build relationships, we are finally able to say we are officially partnering with Mammoth Motocross to provide chapel service and other events throughout the race week of June 19th-June 29th! We are excited to see God move through this event.

In previous years, we have been blessed enough to be able to crash with friends for a few nights; however, because there will be a larger, organized group of PanicRev volunteers heading to Mammoth, we have had to rent our own condo this year. This rental cost has taken up our entire budget for this event and we need your help. Please pray about donating money to help with the expenses of food, gas, and entry fees for this monumental Mammoth ministry opportunity. Of course, please keep us in your prayers; please pray that God shows the motocross community at Mammoth his awesome mercy and grace.

I think in many ways the scientific community has done their best to explain away most modern day miracles; however, from time to time there are stories that doctors simply have no explanation for. On September 9^th, 2007 Buffalo Bills tight end, Kevin Everett, suffered a horrific neck injury. Immediately the prognosis was grim: some said Kevin would be lucky to pull through, everyone said there was no hope of him walking out of the hospital. Against all odds Kevin began to show some movement in his hands and feet. The doctors could not explain Kevin's recovery and many began to build it as a modern miracle.

I would like to say, yes miracles do happen. From God changing peoples' lives to healing, miracles happen all around us. Several months back we did an interview with Sean Borkenhagen. Sean had suffered a scary crash at Oak Hill in March. As a result of the crash, Sean broke his collar bone so severely that it caused major nerve damage which caused him to experience some paralysis in his arm from the shoulder down. Sean was told that his arm would never be the same and that he was going to have to live the rest of his life without the use of his right arm. Sean was devastated at the time, but he realized it could have been a lot worst.

Sean was driven to find a way to prove the doctors wrong and began to focus on his faith in addition to intense physical therapy. Moreover, Sean had a lot of people here at PanicREV and all over the country praying for him as he moved forward with his recovery. It was amazing to watch as Sean began to slowly regain some movement in his right arm. The last time I saw Sean was this year at Mammoth, and Sean had just got enough movement and strength back to be able to cruise around on a mountain bike. I continued to pray for Sean; however, the next time I saw him was two weeks ago at Perris Raceway. I was shocked to see Sean wasn't there hanging out with some friends, but in his gear riding! It almost brought a tear into my eye. I was so pumped! I could not be happier for Sean or more grateful for the miracle God worked in Sean's life! We serve an awesome and amazing God!

So, do miracles still happen? There is no doubt in my mind that God is working miracles all around us!

We sat down with Sean this year at Mammoth and did a video interview. To hear more about Sean's journey please check it out: http://www.panicrev.org/videos/interviews/borkenhagen.htm

The outpour of support for the Klein family I have seen has been amazing. From myspace.com to message boards, to conversations with people—Brett touched a lot of people in this world and it has been amazing to share and listen to stories about Brett’s life. Moreover, panicREV launched www.brettklein199.com which has been a huge blessing to see so many people sign Brett’s guest book and so many more simply visit the website. It has been truly amazing to see people pull together and put on events, print stickers, and go out of their way to show support for the Klein family. The hearts that I see in people are good hearts … hearts I hope to see more of, not only in hard times, but also when times are good. It is important that we not only share in each other burdens and hardships, but also in our joys and victories.

In the end I am going to miss Brett and my heart truly bleeds for the Klein family. I can not even imagine the pain of loosing a son or brother. It is also too painful to even have to think about. In this time, just like any hard and trying time, I pray that we all lean on and grow towards the Lord for He truly is the “father of compassion and the God of all comfort” (2 Corinthians 1:3). There are a lot of things in the world that will provide a quick and temporary fix to our pains and troubles; however, Jesus is the only true healer, the only one we can find true comfort in!

Hopefully in next months journal I will be able to share some of panicREV's joys and victories in the Lord with everyone!

Until then,
Scott

I was fortunate enough to make the trip to the Dude Ranch last year for the Loretta Lynn's Amateur Nationals. Had a great time and hope to do it again! 

With that said Loretta's is always a fun event, in my humble opinion the best motocross event of the season. It gives teams a chance to see how their riders respond to pressure, and trust me the pressure that is put on these guys going good at this race is extensive! It also gives the riders that have been working so hard all year long a chance to show case their potential. Guys like Kyle Corman, Brad Frace, and Australia's Tye Simmons come out of the wood work and leave their mark on the historic Loretta Lynn’s soil! Looking forward to the rest of the week to see how it all pans out.

If you have visited a motocross message board this week all the Loretta’s buzz is about MXers for Jesus founder Reverend Kevin Cozadd. What is all the commotion about? It seems as though most feel Kevin is competing in a class below his ability level, sandbagging. That debate is fair enough and very well may be a legitimate one. However, that fact that the debate has gotten nasty and began to attack Kevin personally makes me sick. Kevin is a man of God and doing the very best to walk along the narrow path in front of him. Kevin, nor any Christian leader, or any Christian for that matter is perfect. That fact that Kevin and his ministry are being attacked with such vigor and strong negative emotion is mind bogging and illogical. Not to mention the debate has now moved on to karma being Kevin crashed and hurt his shoulder early in the second moto. KARMA? As in Kevin deserves or even brought this injury upon himself? That seems to me to be such a heartless thought and argument. What is wrong with people? It is almost as they delight in Kevin’s injury with a smug, “that will show him” mentality. Again, in my brain wrapped and twisted logic.

Moreover, everyone is so caught up in their Cozadd bashing that they are missing some of the best racing Loretta’s has seen in years—perhaps ever. In the A class Nico Izzi, Tray Canard, and Austin Stroupe are going at it! It has been an epic battle almost every moto from the drop of the gate to the waving of the checkered flag. These three young standouts are not only riding phenomenally, but are battling back and forth like seasoned vets. It is going to be exciting to watch all three of them continue their battle as they walk into Millville next weekend. All three riders will be making their AMA Pro Motocross debut. Until then keep on checking out www.panicrev.org for the latest photos and updates from Loretta Lynn’s!
