Favorite Bible Verse:Romans 8:37-39 "No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us. For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation will be able to separtate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord."
Favorite Bible Character:Daniel
How Has FCA Changed Your Life:Through FCA, God took one of my passions, sport, and used it to draw me closer to Himself. I accepted Christ at an FCA leadership camp. From then on God has continued to pour into me through the ministry of FCA helping me learn how to use my sport as a platform to glorify God and point others to Christ.
How Do You Keep Your Focus on Christ on the Field:I like to always have a focal point, whether it's the small cross and AO1 drawn on my cleats or the verses taped to my stick, to help me keep my focus on Christ while I compete. It helps to remind me that playing lacrosse can be a form of worship, with the way I play being a thank you response to God.
