Proud of these guys! Love getting to help them grow in their walks with the Lord every week.

[Cory Smith @RCorySmith]

Patrick Bailey hit a walk-off home run last season for the Giants wearing a “Jesus Won” shirt under his uniform.

NC State skipper @Elliott_Avent reached out to Bailey and got shirts for the team. Here’s why Luke Nixon, Drew Lanphere and Luke Hemric said they are wearing them.

I’m not sure the media was prepared for these answers from @OU_Softball players. Grace Lyons and her teammates didn’t hesitate to tell @ESPN the source of real joy.

"The only way that you can have a joy that doesn't fade away is from the Lord,” Grace said. That’s truth—and I appreciate that Grace and her teammates aren’t afraid to tell the world about their faith in Jesus Christ every chance they get. God bless you @Grace_Lyons5, @JaydaC00, and @Alyss_33—and congratulations on your big national championship win last week!

Take a minute to watch their interview and you’ll be encouraged and inspired. Do you know that joy? #EyesUp

This is why I love doing what I do with Athletes in Action. Just like Hubert Davis, my life was changed through discipleship in college through AIA. Mike is actually now my boss and I agree, we all need a Mike!

[Athletes In Action @AIA_ChapelHill]

“I pray my children and the players I coach will have a ‘Mike’ in their life, someone to pour into them and invest in them through a discipleship relationship just as Mike did with me.”

@pjosh235 Amen and congratulations!! Excited for you guys!

[Ryan Mathews @RMath13]

I’m so proud to support NC State Baseball. Each player and coach should be so proud of what they accomplished. They showed heart, character, resiliency, and toughness. They became America’s team. And it was all taken away from them. It’s truly heartbreaking and just isn’t right.

[Ryan Mathews @RMath13]

This will go down as the worst decision @NCAACWS has ever made. Ending NC States run due to covid is an absolute joke. The decision wasn’t about safety, it wasn’t about the players, or the game of baseball. You just ruined your own championship and messed up big time @NCAA.

[Ben Kelley @B_kell112]

It’s baffling that the @NCAA is making no effort to actually prevent the spread of Covid in Omaha…no masks, capacity limits, bubble, etc. Player and fan interactions are happening everywhere.

But yet still testing non-vaccinated players for what? To “protect” them?

[Ryan Mathews @RMath13]

Unless NC State wins this national championship, which they still have a great shot to do, there will be an asterisk by this college World Series winner. NC State would easily be 3-0 heading to the World Series final well rested.

[Ryan Mathews @RMath13]

Without a doubt and I mean no doubt at all, NC State wins today with their full line up.

[NC State Baseball @NCStateBaseball]

WE'RE HEADED BACK TO OMAHA!!!

[Ryan Mathews @RMath13]

Let’s go!!! @NCStateBaseball headed to the college World Series!! Unbelievable, the toughness and grit to come back and beat the no 1 team twice in row after losing by 19. What a team and series!! #pack9 #collegeworldseries

[Ryan Mathews @RMath13]

If you only obey God when you can fully understand what He’s doing and why, you’re not trusting in God, you’re trusting in yourself.

[Ryan Mathews @RMath13]

You can’t and you won’t please everyone but make sure you’re pleasing the one who made you and gave himself for you.

[Dustin Benge @DustinBenge]

Either Scripture will be the lens through which you view the world, or the world will be the lens through which you view Scripture.

Ultimately one or the other will be your authority.

[Ryan Mathews @RMath13]

@Add_Bras This is unbelievable.

[Ryan Mathews @RMath13]

I heard your vote doesn’t officially count unless you post a picture afterwards, so here we are. Get out there and vote! #vote2020 #YourVoteCounts #2020Elections #FutureVoter

[Ryan Mathews @RMath13]

@Stlville84 No doubt, the top of the line up wasn’t even close to getting a hit off him all night.

[Ryan Mathews @RMath13]

Can’t believe they took Snell out. Why not ride or die with a guy who’s been lights out all night? #WorldSeries

[Ryan Mathews @RMath13]

The ultimate goal of Christianity is not morality; it is union with Christ.

[Ryan Mathews @RMath13]

@SRowe1978 Love you man, I’m grateful for you!

[Ryan Mathews @RMath13]

No matter what happens in this life, we can be joyful through all circumstances because of Jesus. Everything else can be taken away. Christ is our hope that never changes.
