Brad Stevens and his Butler Bulldogs pulled off a big-time 67-65 win against Purdue University on Saturday in the Close The Gap Crossroads Classic. Butler faces Gonzaga tonight on ESPN2. This story was published in the Fall 2011 issue of Sports Spectrum.
The Way
The last two years have been a whirlwind for Brad and Tracy Stevens.
The 2009-2010 season was crazy enough, when Brad and his Cinderella Butler University Bulldogs nearly knocked off almighty Duke in the NCAA men’s basketball national championship game. Then came the 2010-2011 season when No. 8 seeded Butler made another unexpected run to the title game — the only Indiana team ever to advance to back-to- back Final Fours… Continue reading
Despite injuries his first two seasons, Tyler Zeller’s faith and trust in God remained strong
Most Christians are of the firm belief that God does indeed have a plan for each of them and that they can claim the promise of Jeremiah 29:11 – a plan of hope and a promising future.
Unfortunately, the road that this plan follows can be, and often is, scattered with bumps, obstacles and even an occasional detour. At such times, God’s Plan may not be as easily accepted or understood. In fact, it may even be questioned.
In Tyler Zeller’s three years at the University of North Carolina, he has encountered just such a challenge – not once, but twice – in his pursuit of personal and team success with the Tar Heels… Continue reading
Join host Bryce Johnson and the vice president of U.S. Sports Management Ryan DiNunzio for Sports Spectrum Magazine’s podcast called “SPORTS YAPP.” Episode No. 16 is an entire podcast dedicated to Tim Tebow and the impact he’s had because of his faith.

What has Tebow taught us about faith? Is the quarterback position overrated? And what doors did Kurt Warner open for Tebow? Let us know where you agree or disagree.

The Broncos are 8-5, on a six-game winning streak and 7-1 since Time Tebow was named the starter. All he does is win.
This post includes Tebow’s testimony that was featured in Sports Spectrum’s Fall 2008 issue, “The 25-Year Anniversary Book” and The Core Media Group’s new book “Wisdom & Sports” along with a number of other links (positive and negative) regarding Tebow and his faith.
Grounded, By Victor Lee
In the beginning was God. He created man. He knew every person He would create in advance, knitting each together in the womb (Psalm 139:13). After He created Tim Tebow, there was an effort made to stop him from being born…

1. Cal Baptist – Although Cal Baptist finished sixth in the Learfield Sports Directors Cup (for the 2010-11 season) for all NAIA schools, behind Azusa Pacific (first) and Fresno Pacific (third), this award is about a collective work of achievements over the 2011 year, not the 2010-11 school calendar. With that said, we couldn’t dismiss Cal Baptist’s accomplishments, especially when the Lancers continued to win this fall despite moving from NAIA to NCAA Division II. In all, Cal Baptist won two NAIA national titles (women’s swimming in the winter and women’s golf in the spring), had one NAIA national runner-up finish (women’s softball in the spring), and won four National Christian College Athletic Association national titles (men’s golf, men’s division I soccer, women’s division I soccer, and women’s volleyball), and finished runner-up in NCCAA women’s cross country this fall. Besides their national championships, what also set Cal Baptist apart from other schools was their dominance Read More
