On today’s episode we have Tanner Thach, UNC Wilmington first baseman, join the show. Tanner is a phenomenal baseball player, in fact, you will probably hear his name called in the first round of this year’s MLB draft. But Tanner is a better human being than he is baseball player. That is what I find most admirable in this 20 year old young man. He finds his identity in the Lord, not in being a baseball player. Not to put words into his mouth, but I am sure that Tanner could care less about being a first round draft pick, he wants to be the star player for Christ our Lord and that is it.
Tanner and I went up against one another in college as so-called “rivals” but we discussed that in today’s society, it is not me vs. you, we are on one team. JESUS’S TEAM! Amen!
Tanner’s verse of the week was from Philippians 3:13-14 that says, “Brothers, I do not consider that I have made it my own. But one thing I do: forgetting what lies behind and straining forward to what lies ahead, I press on toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus.”
