When Jeremy Lin found a new home with the Charlotte Hornets, he may have found a new spiritual community as well.
According to an update on his prayer list, Lin has launched a Bible study with his teammates, as “many of my teammates have shown a hunger to either learn more about Christ or strengthen their relationship with God.”
Lin joined the Hornets earlier this year in hopes to find consistency spiritually and athletically.
“My biggest takeaway from the whole experience was probably my growth as a person,” Lin told CBS Sports. “Spiritually just trying to become a better person, in terms of just staying positive and perceiving, regardless of the circumstance. I think that was a big test of faith for me.”
Last month, Lin posted an update on his website blog, briefing fans on his life post-Lakers and how he has adjusted to Charlotte.
“The good thing about a long season is that things can turn around quickly and we just have to keep working hard, focus on improving everyday, and stick with the process,” Lin writes. “Personally, I want to try not to get too high or too low this season. One verse that I put up in my apartment as a wall decal to remind me of this is Psalm 46:10 (Be still and know that I am God).”
