About this episode

David Walton left the corporate world after nearly four decades to lead a sports ministry. David’s desire to see people from many walks of life come to faith in Jesus Christ prompted him to join Push the Rock Ministries. You’ll be inspired to seek how the Lord desires to use your passion for people and sports to build the Kingdom…it’s amazing how lives are impacted for eternity when we surrender to God’s leading.  

 

Guest Bio:

David Walton began serving as chairman of the board with Push the Rock in 1998 before joining full time as president. But his desire to serve the Lord through the avenue of sports covers a huge portion of his life. David played basketball in high school and college. He holds the high school single season and single game assists record. His team finished third in NJCAA tournament. He coached his U12 soccer team to a state championship.David grew up in the love and care of a Christian family and came to Christ at a young age. However, faith was never his own until multiple basketball injuries made him realize that it was only Jesus who could satisfy the longing in his heart.
