“Oh, without a doubt, Doc, it was my faith in the Lord Jesus Christ.” -- Curt Warner talking about accepting his knee injury

[Web author's note: This is an excellent book! I highly recommend it!]
Scranton: "You had a hard time accepting what had happened at first [referring to a knee injury].One of the things we talked about was the partnership between you, me and Jimmy. But there was someone else in that partnership too, wasn't there?"
Warner: "Oh, without a doubt, Doc, it was my faith in the Lord Jesus Christ. And without that faith, and believing that if it was His will I would be able to play again, I don't think psychologically that I would have been able to get over the trauma of the whole thing. Basically, I had had no major physical injuries and now, all of the sudden, here's a potential, career-ending injury."

“Christianity gives me the freedom to live my life without drugs.” -- Curt Warner
A lot of people are searching for fulfillment and meaning in their lives. Sometimes, people choose to take the short and temporary routes, opting for instant gratification in an attempt to ease their pain and lack of satisfaction. However, any so-called "gratification"—in reality is a chemical reaction that has no connection with improving the quality of an individual's life—is fleeting and wasteful. One's problems in the real world do not vanish or become solved by the lies produced by drugs and alcohol. I'm a Christian, and this gives me the assurance and the stability that I need to be successful. I know who I am and what I am without needing to be swayed by the opinions or actions of those who surround me. Christianity gives me the freedom to live my life without drugs. I've already found fulfillment. I have faith in God.
