Jaime Garcia
Partner: Sports Spectrum
Where do you find your identity? St. Louis Cardinals pitcher Jaime Garcia shares how his identity, from a very young age, was found in success on the mound. An injury early in his minor-league career sidelined him and called his identity into question. Would his father even want to see him if he failed as a professional ballplayer? A prayer with his grandmother was the dawn of Jaime’s realization that Jesus loved him whether he was a top ballplayer or a stockbroker. In 2011, the lives of his teammates began to reveal what a relationship with Jesus looks like. Although he has achieved the highest success in baseball, he now calls Jesus “the best thing that has happened in my life.”
