Fumble, thanks for the links, and here is a quote I found on his personal website entitled "My Faith", which is his testimony:
MY FAITHHe sounds more like a preacher or a Sunday school teacher than a coach, so I don't know if JB would want him here.
One night, after the usual routine of classes, basketball practice, dinner and more practice, I began reading a book called The Power of Living. The author of the book talked about God and what Christ had done for us on the cross. He spoke of a way to know for sure that your sins were forgiven and that when you die, you could go to heaven. That night, I asked Jesus to come into my life. Honestly, there wasn’t any real emotion, no thunder or lightening, just a peaceful confidence that I wasn’t alone anymore. Jesus Christ filled the void in my life.
The Bible says when you become a Christian, your heart changes. No longer are you the same, the old has gone and the new has come (2 Corinthians 5:17). When we make that decision, we are also no longer under the condemnation of the world or the enemy (Romans 12:1). Because of these truths, we can walk in freedom! We can begin to fulfill the purpose of our existence, to bear fruit, to make His name famous.
In this section, I hope that you will be inspired by the messages or testimony of others. I believe heaven has no “divisions” and pays no respect to race, gender or financial worth. No heaven is beyond our wildest imagination; but until it is our time to go, I hope we can be encouraged to create our own neighborhood of heaven on earth where we reside.
