5Great for Youth Groups  Mar 21, 2010
I teach 9th grade Confirmation class and we showed this movie to the students. They were captivated and really enjoyed it. (Much different from their usual antsy behavior.) It reminds you what being a true sports hero really should mean.

5Great resource of positive role models!  Oct 07, 2009
In today's culture there aren't very many positive role models for kids in the movies, music or in professional sports. This video is a great resource for positive role models. I use this DVD when I teach my 5th grade religious education class. They love it!

5great for youth groups  Jan 28, 2008
Our high school youth group watched this DVD and it generated a huge discussion about faith and how we, as Catholics, are called to live out our faith. It's a real blessing to be able to share this type of spiritual witness with kids. The players' faith was genuine and sincere. They showed the kids that even with a very strong faith they're still not perfect and need encouragement and prayer every day. Mike Sweeney's story about how long it took for him to ask forgiveness was especially moving. This video would be great even for non-Catholics.

5Champions of faith-Must see  Oct 03, 2007
Lately, professional athletes have been getting a large amount of bad press.
If you think all athletes today are law breaking, ego maniacs, you have to watch the DVD "Champions of Faith." It will renew your faith as well as your faith in many of the professional ball players.
This is the first installment of a series and I can't wait for the next production.
