Bernhard Langer on Winning the Masters and Coming to Faith in Christ | Bible Caddie Classic

In this Bible Caddie Classic from Episode 100, William Kane, Ben Crane, and Webb Simpson sit down with Bernhard Langer. Two Masters victories, 42 European Tour wins, 47 Champions Tour wins, six Schwab Cup titles, ten Ryder Cups, and a World Golf Hall of Famer. Bernhard shares the story of winning the 1985 Masters, the emptiness he felt that night, and how he came to faith in Christ weeks later at a Bible study led by PGA Tour chaplain Larry Moody.Topics covered:- Two Masters victories, 47 Champions Tour wins most ever, six Schwab Cup titles most ever, World Golf Hall of Famer- Don't look at leaderboards: the advice Bernhard gave Ben Crane early in his career that changed everything- Tearing his Achilles playing pickleball at 66 and winning on the Champions Tour nine months later- 18 years in a row winning on the Champions Tour which has never happened before to anybody else either- I believe God has given me this platform to be successful and I want to use it to spread the good news. That is part of what we are to do as ambassadors of Christ and I am certainly not ashamed of it- The 1991 Ryder Cup: missing the six foot putt and what his faith taught him about perspective- Larry, I have just missed a putt. It is not life and death. The only perfect person that ever lived, Jesus Christ, was crucified. So what I did was not all that bad- Winning the 1985 Masters and using the Lord's name in vain on live TV going out to 40 countries- Larry Moody and Scott Simpson got on their knees and prayed for Bernard that he would one day use the Lord's name in a different way- After winning the Masters I had this void in my heart. I had this emptiness. You are literally world number one. You have money, cars, houses, you are famous. And I had this emptiness and I had no idea why.- Bobby Clampett invited Bernhard to a Bible study and he showed up three nights after Larry Moody had prayed for him- John 3:3 and 3:5: you have to be born again to enter the kingdom of heaven- I knew I had never said the prayer where I would say Lord Jesus I acknowledge who you are, I give my life to you, I confess I am a sinner- The moment I did that the emptiness was gone. Left. And it has not returned. And this was 1985.- Winning the 1993 Masters on Easter Sunday: I am the only guy in Butler Cabin to mention Jesus twice, once in a very bad way- Money or victories are short lived. Only God can satisfy the void. Without him we are missing the biggest part.- We need to live life from an eternal perspective. Eternity is a very very long time compared to the 100 years we may live here on Earth.Follow Bible Caddie:Instagram: @biblecaddieTikTok: @biblecaddieX: @biblecaddieListen and subscribe: https://www.biblecaddie.com/podcastInterested in starting a Bible Caddie Featured Group? groups@biblecaddie.comQuestions or inquiries: info@biblecaddie.comShop Bible Caddie: https://www.biblecaddie.com
