The Sacrifice that Brought Me Home

“I received a scholarship to Concordia College, but my faith waned during those years. I decided the rules weren’t for me. I wasn’t leaving Jesus, only His church. In June of 1993, soon after graduation, I was selected by the Minnesota Twins in the Major League Baseball Amateur Draft  and helped lead the club team to a pennant. I didn’t feel a need for God – I thought things couldn’t be better… During my second year, my average dropped from .310 to .202. During this rough patch, I found a need for God. I still believed; I had faith, but it was personal and private. I was turning to God, but not to His Church. This continued for several years. In May of 1995, I was released from the Twins. My dream was shattered, and I was as lost as I’ve ever been.”
