BUMP:

Ah Oh... Listen I box, I been a boxer now for ten years. I been in 45 bouts and I have won all but 35. Yes simple math I have lost 10 out of 45. Not so bad!

Is it non-Christian? I never looked at it as "Christian" or not, it's something I enjoy doing and I feel I was given a gift for it. I know a lot of boxers that attend my Church at Calvary Chapel here in Albuquerque. Many have a pure heart and they praise God with all they have. It's a sport (an extreme sport) but none the less it's a sport. I'm a youth pastor at my Church and never has this been an issue with my pastor Skip Heitzig. Not once was I ever told that it's non-Christian, I even have my Church come to my bouts, I have many of my youth members sit in my corner. It's a lot of fun and the kids love it as well. With the proper dedication and the proper equipment there really is no harm (short term).




God's Blessings
