Blake McKnight, one of the youth at my church, Liberty Christian Church, received a full scholarship for baseball to Evangel University. Blake is a good example of a homeschooler who was able to play sports, be competitive, and get a scholarship without ever having to be in a private or public school. Years ago this would have been unheard of, but it is becoming more and more commonplace. And thanks to great achievers like Blake, it can, and likely will, become more commonplace. Congratulations, Blake! You have worked hard and been disciplined–the Lord has rewarded your diligence and blessed you with great talent.
*update: Blake finished school at Evangel and was drafted by the Cardinals and is currently in their minor league system. Keep going, Blake!
