Basketball as a Mission Field with Former Professional and Collegiate Basketball Player Phil Morrison

Competing for Christ Podcast

Do you look at your sport as a mission field? Through doing this podcast, I have learned that all sports can and should be used as a mission field for those that proclaim Jesus as their savior. We should be willing to show that Christ-likeness in how we perform, compete, train, and interact with everyone we come in contact with.

Phil Morrison, AKA the Basketball Missionary, joins the show today to talk about why God has called him to spread the Gospel while teaching basketball to thousands of people. As a former collegiate and professional basketball player, Phil uses his life experiences to show others what Jesus has done for him, and what he continues to do through him as he travels the world. With an incredible story, listen today as we get to discuss:

• Phil's love for Jesus and basketball
• The best part of playing collegiate and professional basketball
• Using a platform to glorify God globally
• Why he started Hoops for Christ
• "God's sport": the story of James Naismith inventing basketball
