The Church is made up of Christians from a myriad of different professions, and yet their ordinary tales of God at work rarely get told. In this series, we bring you stories of faith on the frontline

My name is Scott Robertson and I’m preparing to compete in the Invictus Games in Düsseldorf, Germany, in September. Invictus is an international multi-sport event for wounded, injured and sick servicemen and women (both serving and veterans). The word ‘Invictus’ means ‘unconquered’, which is a reminder of what’s possible, post injury. I’ll be competing in indoor rowing, table tennis and sitting volleyball.
