The show "Homecoming".

He was very open about how God was responsible for changing his life....just a great testimony. There is a guy in the audience you can see every now and then, Joey Bell. He went to my high school & was Josh's asst. coach at Athens Drive. So, maybe if we really are interested in having Josh speak here.... 8)

However, I have to give Josh a "thumbs down" for wearing an NC State pullover during BP.

His agents daughter goes to LU so I suppose that would be a pretty easy way too

Sounds like a perfect "in" for Josh to come speak at convo sometime next fall/winter!

I've heard Josh Hamilton tell his story 4-5 times by now.


Every time I get a chance to see it I watch it.


I would go to that convo.

I watched it because nothing was on TV, but then i really got into it. It was a good special. I don't really know much about baseball and I have never heard of this dude, but it was a really good story.
