Champions of Faith-Baseball Edition
As a mother of two sons who LOVE baseball (and the St. Louis Cardinals!), this Video was very inspiring. Showing our young people that a Hero is someone who walks daily with our Heavenly Father and gives HIM the glory for their accomplishments and talents is SO refreshing! This Video shows our human weakness and sinfulness as well as God's redeeming grace for the forgiveness of our sins and those around us. What a blessing for any and every family! Regardless of age or love of sports, you'll love it!

Great Production, but quite Catholic
I give this DVD a well deserved 4.5 stars. The production value is top-notch! The insite into three players (Piazza, Eckstien, Sweeny, and Suppan) ane two coachs (McKeon) are great. Brief appearences and comments by many other players. Excellent editing. Excellent use of showing the players and coaches are real humans who make mistakes, and are humbled by both those mistakes and thier faith. <

>I take one half-point for the DVD being soley focused on Catholic players. Nothing against Catholithism, I was raised Catholic myself and still have much respect for the Church. But the DVD description is silent on being Catholic focused, and excludes any serious focus on players who are non-Catholic Christians (Sid Bream, Gary Carter, Albert Puljos, John Olerud). I would have given it five stars if the packaged description was more specific. <
><
>I hope to use it in my Sunday School ministry, but being a non-Catholic, will have to skip some minor sections dealing with McKeon's devotion to a Saint. <
><
>I hope the producers of this DVD will make future productions on other sports. I will eagerly buy them, but I do hope a clearer description is provided.

Champions of Faith Review
This is a fabulous video! Major figures in baseball describe how their lives are enriched by living their faith. I bought this video to show the boy's youth group at my parish. I recommend it to anyone who wants to help young people (as well as older folks) form a strong faith connection. Champions of faith is a great video that counters the rhetoric that works to eliminate matters of faith from everyday life. This video has my highest recommendation.<
