Good for you! We have all been down the road that you were on, some of us just won't admit it. By your omission of faith, God is going to do wondrous things for you, and will use you as a testimony to others. Just because we get saved doesn't mean that everything will be rosy from here on out; it is a daily process, but i can guarantee you that many will be praying for you! And thank God we have people like you who will be an example for our young people who are truly struggling today. I go to Southcrest Baptist, and we all will be praying for you! Go Tech!

More importantly he realized something was missing in his life and he found it in God. Through all of the adversity he got stronger physically and spiritually. He has every right to tell his story, his entire story including how the power of prayer affected him!.

I'm assuming his journey with a staph infection started at Covenant Medical Center? Broken ankle – surgery – staph infections.

He's not trying to push God on anybody. He is simply telling his story and witnessing to people what God has done for him Not something you push on people? He’s not trying to push God on anybody.

I don't believe in evangelizing though. God is a personal thing, not one you can push on other people. Good to see he found some inspiration. I don’t believe in evangelizing though.

His story is one that is truely inspirational. He has endured through the love of God and he knows it. I will continue to follow his life, whether or not football is a part of it because he is destined to do great things for God in Jesus' name. Amen.

Football can only take a player so far in this life. Baron Batch now has something that is eternal! Not to be missed in this story is the love that Key Dawson and Manny Ramirez gave a teammate which resulted in a changed life. Now, Baron can do the same for other teammates in times of need. Great story! Simply put, that is the kind of role model who can positively influence today’s youth.

It's no wonder that this young man has so many "followers" in his corner. The story was so well written I re-read it several times without realizing I had done so. I will be in church tomorrow because of this. I had planned to skip church because my wife is out of town. No more. What a wonderful, insperational story.
