In sport and in life, there are things that you can’t control, but Christ calls you to look to him in those moments. James 4 says that “You do not know what tomorrow will bring. What is your life? For you are a mist that appears for a little time and then vanishes.”
We have so much hope in Christ though. He’s our ONLY hope. And for Laurèn Schiek, she’s had to rely on his plan a lot recently. Lauren played softball at Santa Clara and Abilene Christian University, and although she had success, her time as a collegiate athlete came with many trials, one of which came her senior year.
Today's conversation includes:
- How Laurèn has seen God move in her life
- What a diagnosis meant for her softball career and future
- Reminding herself that softball is secondary to Jesus
- What college sports are truly like
- How impactful the For His Glory Podcast has been on her life
