Im not a guy whos going to be trying to bash people over the head with the Bible. I want people to know when they see me play that something is different, that I play for something different, and whether Im talking about it [or not], I just hope by the way I carry myself and by the way I play the game, they can see theres something different about that guy. And they find out what it is and then they know. Its part of who I am.
Those are the words of Stephen Curry, the superstar point guard for the Golden State Warriors.

That is a shame. I did not know that. Though a lot of high profile even “conservative” Christians have disappointed me in that regard. (Identifying with “NeverTrump-ism.)
He is also an outspoken, radical, BLM liberal. Guess no one told him liberalism and Christianity are polar opposites
I see this all the time. I have many good friends who are black and sincerely love God. They believe the exact same things that I do on most issues, but they still vote D every election. They have been told their whole lives D good, R bad. They assure me Trump is a racist, but can never prove why.
I have neither read nor heard anything that convinces this ordained minister that Curry is a genuine Christian. A churchian of sorts, yes.
It is between him and God, but his so-called witness only plays well with secularists and other churchians.
He is at heart a leftist, and sides with the anti-Christ left.
I am a lifelong conservative, and an ordained minister. I decided to vote for Trump the day he announced.
I have never liked him on a personal level. If he is a Christian, then he is a woefully immature one, with an appallingly bad witness and lack of spiritual wisdom.
I was not voting for a pastor or an elder. If I had been, I would not have given him a moment’s consideration.
I was voting for a president. I had no doubt or hesitation. He has vindicated my assessment of him as a secular businessman; he has done an excellent job. I would vote for him again.
Personally, I still do not like him - and he would not like me. I do not take kindly to obnoxious New York aggression, and I am not in awe of people with worldly fame and wealth.
He is very successful as a worldly businessman. As a Christian, he is largely a failure (so much so that he does not even see it).
Make of that what you will.
He is definitely surrounded by mature Christians though. Which is a good thing.
“God chose things the world considers foolish in order to shame those who think they are wise. And he chose things that are powerless to shame those who are powerful. God chose things despised by the world, things counted as nothing at all, and used them to bring to nothing what the world considers important. As a result, no one can ever boast in the presence of God.” - St. Paul, 1st Corinthians 1
I wasn’t really sure who he was addressing, but it did seem like he directed that aT me
I’m sure Psalm 73 and Stephen Curry don’t attend the same you church. You have misapplied cheese scriptures.
i read it again. he’s STILL referring to curry.
addresses him by name at the end of first paragraph.
Youre correct
I was wrong
It happens
I admit
