On a mission from God

It's about Dwight Howard and his religiousness...

The best thing I could read...

Finnaly a believer among NBA players, God is definetly calling His ones to tell about the Thruth, about Jesus' sacrifice for ALL of our lifes and for his salvation plan for every single life in Earth.

I pray for Howard to keep his words and spread the Gospel among the richies.

Jesus bless you all!

it's good that he believes and everything ... and he's headed in the right direction.

but the nba is not a religious organization .... it has fans worldwide of different cultures and faiths. so i dont think that it will be appreciated by a lot of people.

but hey, it's a way of reaching out to people if you want to spread a message. if he strongly believes, then he should do it.

drob is a really devout christian. in both press conferences after he won his rings, he said "glory to God". he also talked to duncan a lot about the Gospel. his actions show it too, donating $10 mil of his own salary to fund a school. awesome player and awesome person.
