Money Matters

Dear Friends and Ministry Partners,

Thank you, truly, for your generosity and faithfulness. In a world full of needs, I am deeply grateful that you have prayerfully chosen to partner with me and the basketball ministry at Auburn University. I steward your giving with great care, knowing it is ultimately the Lord’s.

As Scripture reminds us, “It is required of stewards that they be found faithful” (1 Corinthians 4:2). That faithfulness continues to guide every aspect of this ministry.

The last couple of weeks have been full of opportunities: speaking with the basketball team, leading a Bible study with the Auburn baseball coaches and staff, preaching Sunday morning at a church in Dothan, and speaking to the Farmhouse Fraternity at Auburn to over 100 students at their chapter meeting.  Being present in the community, representing Christ and our basketball program well, is something our coaching staff deeply values, and your generosity makes this possible.

On the road, the night before each game, we gather for Bible study. These times of prayer, unity, and growth in God’s Word have become some of the most meaningful moments we share. As Psalm 133:1 reminds us, “How good and pleasant it is when God’s people live together in unity.”

Travel continues to be a significant part of my role, and many expenses now fall outside university coverage. Your support helps meet those needs and allows me to remain present for one-on-one conversations, Bible study the night before games, as well as pregame and postgame prayer which has become an important tradition within our program.

Recently, your partnership allowed me to travel to Philadelphia to support one of our players. I was able to support him and his family with the ministry of presence and prayer. “Carry each other’s burdens” (Galatians 6:2).

Thank you for investing in lives and making an impact for eternity, and thank you for allowing me to serve the Lord, and this program well. I am deeply thankful for you and always honored to pray for you and your family. Please come visit practice or say hello at a game! War Eagle!
