Ignite Men’s Impact Weekend

Ben was one of the speakers last night in Lynchburg, VA at this event, “where men, God, life and the outdoors come together“.

After giving his testimony to the more than 7,000 in attendance, who will now enjoy two more days of workshops and exhibits, some took a moment to tweet and post their thanks to Ben for sharing his message –


“I’m at the event Ben was great with humility and grace. He has really grown on the Lord and his heart is tender. Thanks Ben!” — Robert Ellenberger.


“Great Job at Ignite Men’s Impact last night. Great to hear Big Ben open up about his faith and family!” — Chris Hrabosky.

“Ben ended the evening by asking for our prayers, noting that he is far from perfect, and daily seeks the Lord for help. You got it, Ben.” — Nick Bonnett. (Photo)

Thank you @_BigBen7 for telling your story.


“I had the blessing of hearing you in Lynchburg tonight. It’s great to see you share your joys and struggles with others. We all face them and you certainly have our prayers as you strive to be a Godly husband and father. When my son, Ben, was little he asked for a 7 jersey and kid sized football helmet. He wore them with pride. Ben is 16 now and tonight we sat together and got to see you describe the way The Lord has brought your faith to a higher level. Thanks for courageously sharing. You’ll never know how you blessed others. Have fun hunting in NZ.” — Tim Alcore.

@_BigBen7 thank you for sharing from the heart last night at #Ignite2017 loved getting to meet you as well! Thanks for all you’re doing.



“What a dream come true! Two of these photos are from 2016 Spring Training at Latrobe where Ben Roethlisberger stopped to sign my football because he saw I was having a hard time getting to where all the signing was talking place.He had his driver stop by me on his way out to sign. I just left an event tonight that Ben was a key note speaker at, and got a photo done with him, which was great beyond words! But I’m gonna start by saying that the picture, the signing, or seeing him face to face isn’t nearly as great as hearing this man’s testimony and love for God and his family! I’m happy he is my team’s QB, but all game and fame aside I’m glad to just know you as a man. I hope to catch a game in Pittsburgh one day before you call it quits (hint:hopefully not this year). Praying for you and the team, and for maturity in the locker room this year. Much love for Ben and the Steelers! P.S. I was so star-struck I forgot I had a picture to do with Tony Stewart! I walked past him while chatting with Big Ben about Harrison! Lol. What a memory! One I won’t forget ever!” — Erik Goughnour. (Photo)
