Concussion #2

"Concussion" was a post topic last week, but we're going back to the subject because I've learned something interesting about Dr. Bennet Omalu (played in the movie by Will Smith). An immigrant from Nigeria to America, he brought his Christian faith with him.

Curiosity and persistence kept him searching for the reason professional football players sometimes seemed to die prematurely. His discovery threatened the game of football at every level, so the NFL used its power to attack his personal integrity and professional career.

Prayer and scripture strengthened his resolve. He cites the Bible parable of the lost sheep as an inspiration.
