About this sermon
19 year old Coco Gauff, a devout Christian, won the US Women's Open tennis title last Saturday. Afterward, ESPN referenced her taking a moment to soak it all in, yet she was clearly praying - a point made by NFL Hall of Famer Tony Dungy on social media. The following day, Demario Davis, a linebacker for the New Orleans Saints began a postgame news conference by praising God. This, after his 4 year old made a remarkable recovery from a lengthy epileptic seizure. A 12-time All-American swimmer at the University of Kentucky and the leader of Save Women's Sports, Riley Gaines, joins to share what she thought of Tony Dungy's correction on social media. Gaines discusses what she made of Demario Davis' remarks and what the response has been so far. She tells us to what she would attribute this seeming rise in athletes being open about their faith. On another note, Gaines is taking part this weekend in the Texas Faith, Family and Freedom Forum. She fills us in on this and gives us a preview of what she will say in her remarks. ------------ EWTN News Nightly provides the latest news and analysis from a Catholic perspective.
