The glory of God has touched my life in many ways. However the most influential of them all is through the game of basketball. At an early age God paved the road for me by providing opportunities to play organized ball. The teammates and coaches that influenced my life on and off the court were just a small part of God’s overall plan for me. He showed me countless failures and only a handful of triumphs. Like anybody else that played the game I found myself maturing as a basketball player but unlike everybody else, I also found myself maturing as a Christian.

The mixing of basketball and Christianity seemed to be God’s plan for me. I’ve prayed about this ‘mixing’ and asked what was His plan for me. What can I possibly do to further His glory? What path should I walk to bring myself closer to Him? God answered my prayer by giving me the opportunity to join the Chinese Christian Union Basketball Committee in the winter of 2001. My role on the Committee was simple and clear. Sacrifice your time. Serve His people. Spread His Word. Witness to others. Coach the game. And keep on serving for His glory and His alone.

For the past couple of years God has blessed me by allowing me to share and spread His love both locally and at a national level. Locally serving CCU and nationally spreading the Gospel of God’s love by coaching the CCU Basketball Team – Ambassadors of Christ. Through sports ministries I am able to pass the knowledge of the game to the next generation. I pray that I succeed in passing my faith in Christ to them as well. My faith in the Lord has grown immensely and I pray that I may straighten my walk so that I can continue witnessing to others for His glory.
