Dwight Howard

And while I'm in church, uh, we, uh, they take us to our little Bible study. So we have team ministry, team ministries for the teens. Yep. Adults stay in the main church. So I'm in the team ministry and, um, uh, the guy starts praying at the end of the whole session. He's praying and he says, anybody who, uh, right now has a bad stomach ache, please come forward.

And this thing, you know, my stomach is bubbling like really bad. I'm like, my stomach ain't hurt this whole time I was in here. Now my stomach is bubbling. I feel like I got to go let one out. It's crazy. And so I'm, and I'm like, man, I can't go up. I cannot go up. My stomach is hurting so bad.

How crazy is that? So I get up and I start. He's talking to me. And he says, Dwight, I want you to preach his word. After you had just heard it earlier. Yeah, at my house. Yeah. By myself. Yeah. So I'm like, hold up. Hold up. Let me make this connection. How would he know something that was told to me verbatim at my house on my own time? How would he know this? It had to be something out of me.

that spoke. So I was like, man, this is serious. So that's when my journey was like, after that I was like, okay, I know what I gotta do. And I knew it was gonna be difficult. I first got to the NBA and said I wanted the cross to be on the logo. My target on my back, One, I had a target for being the number one pick.

And from coming from a smaller school in Georgia and all that stuff. But then saying that I am a believer in Christ, the target went from like that to my whole body became a target. It was a target of, we're going to try to destroy his testimony. Every chance we get, we're going to try to destroy his testimony. It was like, that's what I've been having to fight. Come on. And that's a tough fight.

See, that's the thing. People think that if you are a Christian that you have to only preach and be a pastor in church, but there's more people who have gifts of the Spirit. See, God has given all of us different gifts of the Spirit, some to evangelize, some to use for healing, some to use for professing, some to use for teaching. Some people are supposed to be ministers.
