Recently there was a thread that discussed using sports stories in sacrament meeting talks. I can't find the thread. Regardless, some of you may be proud to hear that the Josh Hamilton story was the focus in a talk yesterday concerning overcoming adversity. The speaker even said he used espn.com as his first stop in researching his talk.

Was there any religion in this talk, or was it more like an ESPN The Magazine article?
