Discipleship and evangelism are the main emphases of their ministry. James is now retired but continues to impact others through teaching basketball skills at local schools and has authored materials like "Meet My Head Coach," which has been translated into many languages and used by organizations such as the Fellowship of Christian Athletes and Athletes in Action.
