This past weekend we saw a documentary that melted me to tears. The King's basketball coach, who for years was the state-championship stepchild, had won the district championship and riding with the King's team on the bus home in February 2015.
On the off-ramp from I-5, brakes failed and the bus speeded up. The coach heard the bus filled with prayers: for survival, for salvation. The coach instantly knew his life would forever change: death, injury, paralysis.
The crashed and turned over.
Some minor injuries, bruises, and the coach's back pain.
The following school assembly, the whole team, spared from death, talked about a miracle.
They ordered T-shirts: "Saved for a Reason - Loving God; loving others.
The opposing team bought T-shirts with the same message.
KING-5 News recorded the testimonies.
A producer came up to the coach: "This is more than basketball, isn't it?"
Three weeks later the perennial runner-up WON...THE STATE CHAMPIONSHIP!
But it wasn't all about basketball.
It was about changed lives.
Here's the DOCUMENTARY TRAILER
