Trusting God When Life Throws You a Curve -- A Conversation with Pitcher David Hess - EP 24
How do you handle things when your plans are dashed? When a health issue puts life on hold? When tragedy hits and you have to come up with a Plan B? Or even hope to survive? That’s David Hess’ story. He was having a great career until something life-threatening happened that brought it to a sudden halt. He walks us through the details in this episode.
When I first heard David tell his story, I could tell he was a great example of a humble man. And he could be proud, because he’s talented, he’s risen to the top, and he has had tremendous blessings. But when you hear his heart, you’ll see that David is an ordinary guy in a Major League world. First, some back story.
There are some great podcasts out there that encourage us in our faith. One of them is Sports Spectrum. I contacted the host recently, Jason Romano, and said I was so moved by his interview with Major League pitcher David Hess. I said my listeners need to hear it, even if they aren’t sports fans. So I stole it! But, yes, with Jason’s permission. This interview is more than sports.
You'll be moved by David's story and fresh faith testimony.
