Stealing Bases for Christ
Episode description
Did you know there was a Christian-centered baseball team competing in the Alaska Baseball League ?
The Eagle River/Chugiak Chinooks is a group of men's college players, most of whom attend and play baseball at Christian schools like Biola, The Masters College and Arizona Christian University.
They compete against the Anchorage Glacier Pilots, Anchorage Bucs, MatSu Miners and Kenai Peninsula Oilers. Those teams have some of the top college baseball players in the country.
My guest on Family Matters is Tim Barto who is the President of the Booster Club for the Chinooks.
We'll chat about what it takes to put together a team, identify host families and how this group of young men influence and are influenced by their 2 month season in the Great Land.
I invite you to tune in.
