Basketball

After coaching boys basketball on the HS level for 12 years I have been blessed to coach girls the last two years.  We have had a couple of very successful years on the court, including making the State Tournament this year for the first time since 1986.

The amazing thing is that it is what happens off the basketball court that makes this team so special.  The past couple of years have seen many tribulations, including deaths of family members, heart attacks, LOTS of breakups and get back together’s, and other’s as well.  This year’s tragic accident to one of seniors was a reminder of the GREATNESS of Christ.  As I have shared in a previous post of Caylin’s injury and the way that God healed her body.

Off course with the bad are all the good things as well.  This year’s greatest joy for me was having the privilege to pray with one of our other seniors as she made a first time commitment to Jesus Christ as her Savior and Lord.  I am looking forward to the honor of baptizing her this Sunday.  God REALLY is good all the time!!

Thanks for the memories ladies (and coaches)!!
