When Baseball Breaks Your Heart

When Baseball Breaks Your Heart: Baseball can break your heart. A season ends sooner than you hoped. An injury takes away the game you love.  A player gets cut.  A senior plays his final inning.  A team falls one game short.  A routine ground ball becomes the mistake you cannot stop replaying in your mind. […]

Built to Perform

High school baseball player sits on a dugout bench at sunset tying his cleats before a game. His glove, bat, and water bottle rest beside him as he prepares on the field, symbolizing discipline, preparation, and stewardship.

Built to Perform:   No serious baseball player walks onto the field with broken equipment on purpose. Players take care of their glove. They choose the right cleats. They tape their bats. They hydrate. They stretch. They train. They recover. Why? Because they understand performance is affected by preparation. A player cannot expect to perform […]

Washed Clean

A baseball jersey hangs over a wash tub as water pours down, washing away mud and dirt. The image contrasts a stained uniform with a clean one, symbolizing forgiveness, renewal, and being washed clean through faith. The graphic features the headline "Washed Clean" alongside scripture references from Psalm 103:12, 1 John 1:9, and Isaiah 1:18.

Washed Clean: By the end of a baseball game, a uniform can be a complete mess. Grass stains.  Clay ground into the knees.  Dirt streaked across the chest.  Sweat.  Mud packed into every crease. But something happens before the next game. That dirty uniform gets washed. The stains that looked permanent are cleaned. The mud […]

Know the Stats or Know the Savior

Know the Stats or Know the Savior:   You can know a lot about someone and still not know them at all. I can tell you that Ken Griffey Jr. had one of the sweetest swings in baseball history, wore #24, and hit 630 home runs. I can tell you that Matt Olson is a […]

Custom Made

Custom Made baseball devotion about being created with purpose and value by God

Custom Made:   Think about an expensive, custom-made baseball glove. Not something pulled off a shelf. This is high-level craftsmanship—premium leather, designed with intention, built for a specific role. Every stitch matters. Every detail is there for a reason. It’s ready the moment it hits the field because it was made right from the start. […]

Iron Sharpens Iron

Crossed wooden baseball bats resting on a dugout bench with a glove and baseball on the dirt floor beneath the headline “Iron Sharpens Iron” from Proverbs 27:17.

Iron Sharpens Iron:   In baseball, the difference between a good player and a great player often comes down to practice, discipline, and teamwork. You don’t just show up and swing the bat once in a while—you hone your skills, listen to coaching, and push through when the game gets tough.  You also hold your […]

Keep Swinging

Baseball player at the plate watching a pitch approach with the words “Keep Swinging,” symbolizing perseverance, faith, and determination.

Keep Swinging   Baseball is a game of failure. Even the best hitters strike out. But the ones who succeed are the ones who keep stepping into the box, pitch after pitch, game after game. They keep swinging. The Christian life is the same. You won’t always feel like you’re winning. Some days you strike […]

Breaking the Curse

Baseball player standing in a cloud of dust, symbolizing breaking free from past mistakes and finding redemption through faith in Christ.

Breaking the Curse   Baseball players and fans are known for being superstitious. From rally caps to lucky socks, some believe their behavior can influence the outcome of a game. One of the most famous examples is the Curse of the Billy Goat. In 1945, a Chicago Cubs fan was asked to leave Wrigley Field […]

Anywhere with God

Justin was saved over 25 years ago and explains that was a turning point in his life that began a journey of transformation that has taught him to rely more on God’s guidance and develop and deeper faith […]
