Stephen Curry on why he doesn't share more Bible verses publicly

Golden State Warriors point guard Stephen Curry said he prefers to show his Christian faith by the way he carries himself rather than by simply quoting Bible verses.

"I'm not a guy who's going to be trying to bash people over the head with the Bible," said the basketball player in an interview with the Fellowship of Christian Athletes (FCA) Magazine for its May/June 2016 issue.

"I want people to know when they see me play that something is different, that I play for something different, and whether I'm talking about it [or not], I just hope by the way I carry myself and by the way I play the game, they can see there's something different about that guy. And they find out what it is and then they know. It's part of who I am."

Curry has just won the National Basketball Association (NBA) Most Valuable Player award for the second consecutive year, and at the same time being the only NBA player to be voted unanimously for the award. Aside from his successful professional career, Curry is also well known for his Christian faith. He was quick to thank God for his talent and good health during his acceptance speech on May 10.

When talks lead to talent though, Curry is able to proclaim his faith in God and accredits Him for what he refers to as his God-given talent. The 28-year-old considers himself a believer that God gives each one some kind of talent because, he attests, God wants people to succeed. Curry is also quick to add that one still needs to make the most out of this God-given talent. As for him, Curry claims he works to give his best for God's glory.

According to Christian Post, FCA magazine editor Clay Meyer also wrote about how proud the organization is of Curry as a Christian athlete. Meyer described Curry as a powerful NBA star who's grounded in his Christian faith and committed as a teammate, father, and community leader. FCA also considers Curry a tremendous role model as the Ohio star is dubbed as "the new face of NBA."
