Okay, so I was digging into this whole thing about Bryce Harper and his religion, right? Turns out, the guy’s a Mormon, a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, to be exact. And he’s not shy about it, which I thought was pretty cool.
First, I scoured the web for anything I could find about Bryce Harper’s faith. It wasn’t splashed everywhere like some other celebs’ lives, but it was there. I learned that he takes his faith seriously, which, you know, good for him.
Then, I noticed something interesting. Apparently, he writes “Luke 1:37” on every autograph he signs. I dug a little deeper and found out that this Bible verse means, “For with God nothing shall be impossible.” That’s a pretty powerful message to share, especially in the sports world where everything seems impossible until someone does it.
- I even checked out his Instagram to see if I could spot any hints of his faith, but it was mostly baseball stuff.
- Still, knowing that he puts that verse on everything from autographs to his bats when he was younger, it really shows how important his faith is to him.
It got me thinking about how athletes, especially the young ones, are becoming more open about their beliefs. Bryce Harper is just one example, but he’s a big one. He’s showing people that you can be a top-tier athlete and still be devout in your faith.
And it’s not just him. I stumbled upon a list of other athletes in the NFL who are also members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. There’s this guy Al Afalava, a defensive back for the Bears, among others. So, it seems like Bryce isn’t alone in this.
Honestly, I just wanted to share this because I found it fascinating. It’s not every day you see someone like Bryce Harper being so open about their faith, especially in the sports world. It’s kind of refreshing, to be honest.
Final thoughts
Bryce Harper being a devout Mormon and sharing his faith through that Luke 1:37 message, it’s a cool thing to see. It reminds us that these athletes are people too, with beliefs and values that shape who they are, both on and off the field.
