Wide Open, Week 5: Craig MacFarlane
About this episode
Craig MacFarlane shares his inspiring journey and challenges graduates to reflect on their dreams during a Sunday worship service.
Listen to the May 17, 2026 Sunday worship service from Zionsville United Methodist Church in Zionsville, IN. Craig McFarland lost his sight at age two in a backyard accident in a small town in northern Ontario. What followed was a life that defied nearly every expectation placed on him — seven consecutive national wrestling championships, water ski jumping as a professional athlete, keynote speeches in over 30 countries, and a 35-year friendship with a US president. But this isn't a story about gold medals. Delivered on Graduation Sunday at Zionsville United Methodist Church, Craig's message challenges graduates — and everyone else in the room — to ask whether the dreams they once had are still big enough to get them out of bed in the morning. As Helen Keller once said, the only thing worse than being blind is having sight but no vision. https://www.zumc.org/sermons
