World Series Co-MVP Randy Johnson Seeks God’s Glory
In 1996, 2001 World Series co-MVP Randy Johnson said:
About three years ago, I had a traumatic experience in my
life—my dad passed away. I was on the brink of becoming a
Christian anyway, but when my dad passed away, I finally
made the vow to the Lord that he could have my life, and I
would glorify him on and off the field. In the past three
years, I have had more heart and more desire, and I feel
that’s a direct reflection of my Christian beliefs and
lifestyle. There’s only way to be on this earth, and that
is to be a Christian.

Contributed by Kenneth Squires on Mar 22, 2005
