Where Does Chazaq Come From?

 The pronunciation of Chazaq is “KA-ZAK.” I’m often asked where the term Chazaq comes from. When I was playing football at NDSU, our chapel leader used this word with us. Some of the guys even wrote it on their wristbands or taped it to parts of their gear.
Chazaq is all about athletics. Every game has moments of struggle and chaos. We want people to understand that in those moments — and in life — we are called to be:

“Strong and courageous, because God is in the storms and chaos of life.”
