S2 34: Doing Hard Things With Leah Church

Leah Church was an NCAA Division One basketball player for the University of North Carolina when, as she would say, she was met with the choice of basketball or Jesus. Today we hear her inspiring story of how God led her to UNC but then gave her the courage to step away when she was asked to compromise her convictions.    Leah Church Show Notes  Take the Strong Women Survey Leah's viral video of making basketball shots backwards  Choosing God Over Basketball article by the Gospel Coalition  This Present Darkness by Frank Peretti  Goliath Must Fall by Louie Giglio  Sylvia Hatchell: The Life and Basketball Legacy by Roberta Teague Herrin & Sheila Quinn Oliver  Join Strong Women on Social Media: https://linktr.ee/strongwomencc   Erin and her husband, Brett, run Maven which “exists to help the next generation know truth, pursue goodness, and create beauty, all for the cause of Christ.” Check out more about Maven here: https://maventruth.com/    The Strong Women Podcast is a product of the Colson Center which equips Christians to live out their faith with clarity, confidence, and courage in this cultural moment.
