Devotes ample time to prayer and reading the Holy Bible frequently
In the build-up to Euro 2024, two members of the German national team have been making headlines for their faith and football prowess. Midfielder Chris Fuhrich and defender Benjamin Heinrichs are using their platforms to share their Christian faith, adding a unique dimension to the competition.
Chris Fuhrich, a 26-year-old midfielder wearing the number 11, is a rising star in the German football scene. He currently plays for VfB Stuttgart in the Bundesliga and has scored an impressive 8 goals this season. Fuhrich made his national team debut recently and has already made a significant impact, with his Christian faith playing a prominent role in his life.
Fuhrich is an outspoken Christian, often sharing Bible verses on his social media posts and using Scripture to describe important moments of his career. When he learned he had been selected for the European Championship squad, he shared Colossians 3:17 on social media, expressing his gratitude.
Fuhrich has a daily prayer routine, setting aside time for prayer in the evening before sleep and in the morning upon waking. He believes that his faith has helped him overcome difficult moments and that his Christian faith has become more intense in recent years.
Defender Benjamin Heinrichs (number 20) is another player in the national German team who is open about his Christian faith. Heinrichs, who was influenced by his mother from Ghana, often shares his faith through social media and interviews. His favourite Bible verse is Psalm 27:14.
Germany, with these two players and many others, is one of the favourites to win the Euro 2024 title. The team has the advantage of playing at home, and their strong performances in the qualifiers have boosted confidence. The opening game against Scotland ended in a resounding 5-1 victory, setting a positive tone for the tournament.
The #OneMoreYearEF campaign is ongoing at Evangelical Focus, aiming to support Christian players and teams in the Euro 2024 competition. With players like Chris Fuhrich and Benjamin Heinrichs in the squad, it promises to be a tournament filled with exciting football and inspiring stories of faith.
