FEEDBACK FRIDAY - JOHN FORCE PRESENTS - THE ERIC MEDLEN PROJECT
FEEDBACK ARTICLE - JOHN FORCE PRESENTS - THE ERIC MEDLEN PROJECT
I would like to
thank you for this article on the John Force tribute to Eric Medlen .It shines
a light on the awesome person behind the Force Racing Team, John Force. Drag
racing fans everywhere should be honored to have John as the ambassador of the
sport we love. I believe John is one of the few true sports heroes of our time.
Eric always reminded me of John. It is hard to believe he is gone. He is
missed by people who never spoke to him. He touched so many people. It's nice
to see a tribute of this stature to honor his memory. Because of Eric, many
will be saved. - Parish Williams, Surprise, AZ.

Force is as classiest an act
as there is in the NHRA. You can bet your boots, if he believes in it, it will
happen. And, the drag racing world will be a safer, happier place for everyone.
Thanks John and Laurie. - Roy Corkil, Meridian,

God bless you John! Keep on believing and may God bless you, your family
and your endeavors in AMAZING ways! As Jesus would have died just for
one, how awesome if our death would lead just one to Him. So Eric
lives on in spirit and continues to lead others to Christ! You keep
preaching John and I am personally praying for you to reach many, many others
as you already are. I have seen the change in your countenance and it
blesses my heart tremendously!!! Please know that! - Debbie Guffey, Redlands, CA
There is not a single doubt
in my mind that Force has been appointed by a "Higher" FORCE (no
funny intended.) This is not about me, but I was not hit in the head real hard
and died a couple of times 12 years ago tomorrow (Sept. 05, 1995) for no reason
or just to suffer. God sends messages in different ways and gives us jobs to do
that we do not understand at the time. I am with John when he says he has a job
to do....I am happy to say that I am proud to have him aboard the
"FAITH" train. God gives us jobs to do and a way to do them! I know
in my case (not tooting my own horn) it is because I BELIEVE and I am so good
it! God Bless. - Carol “Bunny” Burkett, Spotsylvania,

Instead of “JOHN FORCE did
this, JOHN FORCE did that,” why wasn’t your article written “this was done,
that was done” and let the readers conclude and HONOR those who did it?
I’m sorry to say your article came across to me as classless John Force idolatry
and it suspiciously attempted to redirect the spotlight. Poor Eric
-- a victim again.
I hope this criticism is received in a positive way, it is meant to be that
way.

John is "spot on" as the English would say. I am not
going to try and tell you that I have seen God, but I am sure He is real. I
could give you a dozen instances where He is the only answer to the question of
how things turned out as they did.
I am probably one up on 99% of the population, for this one occurrence.
I was bitten by a brown recluse spider, on Christmas day 1992. I had an
allergic reaction and was declared clinically dead upon arrival at
I was there, I could see and hear every one in that room, I knew
what was happening, and I had NOT ONE question. I knew there were others there
also. But those people trying to revive that body on the table, didn't see me.
They didn't feel me, or hear me. But they sure listened to me when I came to in
recovery, and described the scene in the OR, to the letter.
Everyone has a "gut instinct" Some folk have a clear concise word on
their heart. That is never for evil. I won't go into it here, but my dad always
said that I did burnouts, drank booze, and chased women because I was looking
for excitement. He told me that to believe in God, and to follow His guidelines
in the Bible, was to live "supernaturally" I have been living that
way for just a short time, I am still learning. And I am not equipped to even
dream up the events that have been happening, because I am following and not
trying to lead. And I am learning that the things you can't see, are more
profound, have deeper relevance, and feed your spirit.
You just have to make quiet time, so you can hear what He says to
you.
I am not trying to sell you anything, and I am sure not better
than anyone else.
I am simply stating fact, from my history.
And there is enough of it to fill a book or two.
I must applaud you heartily, for providing media that strives to get to the
heart of the matter, and for having the guts to take a stand, for what’s real.
Even if it isn't as popular, as it once was.
All the best to you and your staff and contributors. Thanks for being real.
And John Force, I always thought you were a great driver and racer, but now...I
like you, and...I respect you! I have no capacity for judgment, but I know a
good man when I hear one. I don't have to see you. - James Churchill,
