Brett (former Morris "Tiger" and current Men's Basketball "starter" for the NDSU Bisons) shares about the "need" of "humility"....

Imitating Christ's Humility
" 1If you have any encouragement from being united with Christ, if any comfort from his love, if any fellowship with the Spirit, if any tenderness and compassion, 2then make my joy complete by being like-minded, having the same love, being one in spirit and purpose. 3Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit, but in humility consider others better than yourselves. 4Each of you should look not only to your own interests, but also to the interests of others.

5Your attitude should be the same as that of Christ Jesus..."-Philippians 2



.... as a Sports star/celebrity during his summer mission trip to Taiwan in 2008 at his "home" church (Morris Community Church).

Played with teammate Ben Woodside on an Athletes In Action team last July at the Jones Cup in Taiwan...The U.S. team went 7-2 with opening game and championship game overtime losses to Jordan...Scored a 31 points in a seven-point win over Qatar in the semifinals...Averaged 15.1 points, 6.7 rebounds, 2.9 assists and 28.7 minutes in nine games.

Fargo did a great job fighting the flood and without the basketball players help a lot homes would have been in danger

[goodnewsusa]

yeah...too bad the Bisons couldn't get further in the NCCA tournament-they put a fight against KSU in the 1st round. However, it was timely that they lost, so they can go "back home" to help their "hometown". We'll be watching and praying with this possible "second crest"-Happy Easter-He is Risen!

[goodnewsusa]

I'll get back to you after this current flood as Brett and his teammates are probably "busy" with the current "flood" threat-please pray for strength for the "sand baggers" and the whole Red River Valley community-God bless!

Who was the young Christian teammate that Brett refered to at the end?
