Love Your Neighbor with Former Professional Baseball Player and now World Renowned Inspirational Speaker, Chris Singleton, Ep. 084

Have you ever just heard a story in which someone reacted with such grace, compassion, and empathy that it completely blew you away? Well today’s Built Different Guest, former professional baseball player and now world renowned inspirational speaker, Chris Singleton, joins us on the podcast to share his personal testimony that will do just that. Chris’s impactful story tragically involves the loss of his mother due to the horrific 2015 Charleston Church Massacre. In the midst of unfathomable pain, Chris was left with a choice of either hardening his heart or living out one of the lessons we’ve all heard being, “In this life we won’t always be able to control our circumstances, but we can always control how we respond to them.” In the midst of one of the most heinous acts imagineable, Chris clung to the truth and promises found in God’s Word and chose to respond with LOVE. He lived out the very thing he was always taught growing up found in Mark 12:30-31 which reminds us that we are to love the Lord our God with all our heart, soul, mind, and strength, and secondly we are to love our neighbor as ourself. Chris’s testimony is one that truly echoes and personifies the grace and forgiveness found in Christ. His goal and mission now rests in reminding every individual to choose love no matter someone’s skin color, ethnic background, or circumstance. It’s time to be the change we have all been looking for! Discover more Christian podcasts at lifeaudio.com and inquire about advertising opportunities at lifeaudio.com/contact-us.
