Pistol Pete is now officially my favorite player of all time. He was pushed into a sport by his father and took it all the way. He became a Christian after all the emptiness of money and fame. He was genuine and was not afraid to tell others about Jesus. Then God said come on home at the early age of 40. What a story.

[@briandenny5820]

Beautifully said! He was a class act all the way! I was a young boy and he was my favorite player, I had the floppy socks, the long hair, and I lived with a basketball. Now I live with the lord! Thank you for the kind words about Pete!

[@JohnJohnson-mo4bn]

Oooohh...He's your "Officially" favorite. Hahaha...Who cares. Who are you?

[@BBAKER22]

Pushed by his father? LMAO..

[@brentwilcox9449]

what a very powerful message....it is so incredible that Pete found peace thru JESUS CHRIST....i know he searched many different things over the years he was entertaining fans all over the world...but, JESUS CHRIST kept pursuing Pete....until Pete found HIM....GOD is cool like that...such a powerful message for us ALL....

[@SmiTTyy-sh8nc]

Yes, your absolutely right. When this life of mine passes and I go home, I'll be looking for Pete, to tell him how much this inspired and convicted my heart and many, many others.

[@BestOutdoorFun]

Pete was so laid back and such a nice guy!

[@clydeb7713]

31yrs later, I still miss Pete

[@tonym994]

that dick ,Bill Fitch drove him out of BOSTON when he was (physically and mentally) ready to win his only possible world title w/ the greatest dynasty in sport. BONNIE & CLYDE is my favorite film. I was barely 11 yrs. old, when it blew my mind .no ratings system. no film before it was that graphically violent and sexually frank.

[@scotttyson8661]

That's my hero. Pistol Pete.

[@danielmouton4952]

There has been very few people on this earth that i wanted to be but Pete Maravich was right at the top of the list! I want to thank Jesus for not giving up on Pete and for Pete not giving up on Jesus and by God's holy grace I pray that one day I will be able to meet Pete in Heaven and share my love of Jesus with Him. I loved Pete Maravich as the basketball player but most of all I am super ecstatic that He accepted Jesus as his Lord and Savior! What made Pete truly great for all the ages was when he asked Jesus into his heart!

[@chikkipop]

Why would you believe any of that?!

[@claythomas7982]

I did not know he was a Christian until I hit this video and he makes a great witness, testimony for Jesus Christ.

[@wilbursmith7627]

This is a powerful witness for our Lord and Savior. I coached basketball for over 40 years and watched him as a player at LSU then into the NBA. He endured much, yet he never gave up, gave way or gave in. He endured until he asked Christ into his heart. Pete spoke the truth on this night and a short time later God called him home. In truth Pete's life was a miracle, born with one corenary artery. God had a purpose for Pete, l find peace in hearing peace in Pete's voice.

[@chikkipop]

There is nothing powerful about it. In fact, it's quite sad that he turned to ancient superstition. He was a sad guy, and knew little of the world outside of the game he'd played all his life.

[@MVando640]

Powerful witness! Inspiring as a basketball player, but more so as a follower of Jesus Christ. I’ll meet him one day.

[@chikkipop]

Didn't you hear? He died years ago.

[@MVando640]

@@MVando640 What is "heaven" and how do you know of it? Very strange.

Do you have any more footage of this? SOOO GOOD! Thanks for sharing.

The DVD "The Pistol" has it on the extras.

[@christophermorgan3261]

Not just a great athlete but also a great preacher.

[@BBAKER22]

Great preacher? He was NEVER a preacher!! All he did was share his testimony... HUGE difference!! HUGE!!!

[@LGSNIKOS]

Pistol Pete is now officially my favorite player of all time.

[@jeffersonSantosagorasim]

Queria ver este video legendado em português. Eu tinha em um DVD mas perdi, é um dos testemunhos mais emocionantes que já vi.

I LOVE this man he is totally my people in the precious name of our LORD and the Redeemer of my soul.

[@teedepefanio5687]

Right on, Pistol Pete.. you the man!

[@zaggers77]

Are you a Christian?

Pistol Pete, thank you, I can’t explain it and I don’t understand it, but it’s happening.

"Witnessing". What a ridiculous concept! Believers are so confused and self-deceived. It's sad.

[@BBAKER22]

WHY are you SO ANGRY?

[@paleo704]

Why is it a ridiculous concept ?

[@chikkipop]

@@BBAKER22 *"WHY are you SO ANGRY?"* I LOVE that one! We hear it *all the time.* Criticize an ancient superstition and you must be ANGRY. Now, of course, there's *nothing wrong* with being angry at how gullible people are, or how much damage superstitions have caused, but the idea that we're somehow any more "angry" than anyone else who opposes bad ideas is simply ludicrous. Won't stop believers from saying it, though.

[@chikkipop]

@@paleo704 *"Why is it a ridiculous concept ?"* Because nothing has been *witnessed.* The believer is only relaying what he's been taught to say. The whole thing is nonsense.

[@allend2749]

he may be full of horseshit but he can spin a basketball on his fingers.

[@chikkipop]

He was an amazing player, but a sad and very confused guy, which is why he turned to superstition late in his life. It's unfortunately all too common, as most of the comments here show.
