God is at work in the lives of college basketball coaches around the country. The National Association of Basketball Coaches (NABC) has stepped up its ministry to coaches under the leadership of Executive Director Jim Haney. Each year at the NABC Coaches Convention during the Final Four, ministries such as the Fellowship of Christian Athletes, Athletes in Action, Champions for Christ and America's Family Coaches unite to encourage coaches spiritually.
At this year's Final Four in Atlanta, Washington head coach Lorenzo Romar shared his testimony during the FCA Luncheon on Saturday and gave the 800+ people in attendance an opportunity to accept Christ. Lorenzo is an exceptional communicator and story teller.
A Coaches Forum on Friday was moderated by TNT's Ernie Johnson, who had a opportunity to share about his faith during his recent battle with cancer. This year's forum guests included National Coach of the Year Tony Bennett (Washington State), Jim Kessler (Grace College), Dave Leitao (Virginia) and Mike Jarvis.
Saturday morning's Legends of the Hardwood Breakfast featured Ernie Johnson and Clark Kellogg of CBS, who shared his testimony.
John Maxwell, a former pastor who is now a best-selling author and speaker to Fortune 500 companies, shared on Saturday morning that Talent Is Never Enough, and gave 13 crucial things you can do to maximize your natural talents and become a "Talent-plus" person.
Sunday morning we had the privelege of worshipping together in an inter-denominational service with a great message by Brett Fuller, pastor at Morningstar Church in Washington, D.C., and NABC Chaplain.
