David E. Prince
I’m a husband, father, pastor and seminary professor and I get pleasure from sports activities as a great present from God. I used to be a 19-year-old school scholar enjoying varsity baseball after I put my religion in Jesus Christ as my Lord and Savior and instantly started to reevaluate each facet of my life, together with sports activities. Like many pastors, I’ve been saddened to see households disappear from Lord's Day companies throughout their kids's sports activities seasons. I wish to supply fellow pastors some sensible ideas for coping with this downside.
