122: Michael Loney from Freedom Hoops and his One Good Thing

This week on the C-10 Podcast, we're featuring a "One Good Thing" chat with Michael Loney, the founder of Freedom Hoops, a basketball ministry in the urban core of Kansas City.Michael founded Freedom Hoops in 2014 alongside friend and mentor Kevin Kacy of Freedom Fire. Throughout his career, basketball seemed to promise fulfillment but God used basketball to teach Michael to solely boast in Christ. He has a passion to follow Christ, romance his wife each day, point his sons to Jesus, and to use basketball and the gospel to disciple and transform urban youth to know God.In this conversation, Michael talks about going from small-town Iowa to a career setback that led to founding Freedom Hoops. And much more.LINKS:To order the book, "One Good Thing," from Amazon, go here.To get a copy of "One Good Thing" signed by Dayton Moore, click here.To find out more about Freedom Hoops, click here.For more information about the C-10 Mentoring & Leadership program for high school students, visit our website.To make a financial gift to give students life-changing one-on-one mentoring, visit our secure donation page.For all episodes of the C-10 podcast and ways you can listen, click here.If you’d like to make a comment, have a suggestion for a future guest, or your company would like to help underwrite this podcast, please visit our contact page.
