Jason Smith Played Basketball For The Hawkeyes

Jason Smith is a basketball player for the University of Iowa Hawkeyes. He is a walk-on, which means he did not receive a scholarship. He played very little during his four years on the team, but he stayed with it. He demonstrated real faithfulness. But more than that is the example of his parents. They attended every game-away and home. They knew that chances were few that Jason would play-and in fact, most of the time he didn’t. But there in the stands, every game, sat his faithful parents. It must have been quite an encouragement for him. (Bruce Howell - Sermon Central).
