If you know anything about basketball, you know Steph Curry. He’s the all-star point guard for the Golden State Warriors. After all, Curry is becoming the most popular player in the game! Aside from his basketball skills and his great 3-point shot, what sets Steph Curry apart from other players is his outspoken faith in Jesus Christ. I read about it the other day. Curry said, “I know why I play the game, and it’s not to score 30 points a night, but it’s to use the stage I’m on. I’ve been put here for a specific purpose: to be a witness and to share my testimony as I go through it.” Wow! Think of all the kids that idolize Steph Curry. Think of how many are being pointed towards Jesus because Steph is using his profession as a platform for Christ.

You may be saying, “Luis, we aren’t all superstar NBA players” and you’re right! But we can all use our daily work as a way to point others to Christ. We can do this by working with integrity, having a servant’s heart, and most importantly, by sharing our faith when the time is right. The Bible says in Colossians 4:5-6, “Walk in wisdom toward outsiders, making the best use of the time. Let your speech always be gracious, seasoned with salt, so that you may know how you ought to answer each person.”
