March 6, 2025, former MLB stars Chris Davis (13-year career, Silver Slugger, All-Star, 2x HR Leader) and Cody Allen (9-year MLB Closer, 2nd in all-time saves for CLE) shared their baseball journeys and the role their faith played in shaping them—both on and off the field—with the Texas Wesleyan Baseball Team.

With College Baseball Fellowship, the mission is clear: to help players understand where their true identity lies and support them through the challenges of baseball and life beyond the game.

A huge thank you to Coaches Garza and Shoppach for hosting, and many blessings on your program!

We are taking bookings now to visit other college baseball programs in North Texas.

In Fall 2024, former MLB Home Run Leader, All-Star, and Silver Slugger Chris Davis shared his testimony with the Baylor University Baseball team.

That powerful moment, combined with his own experience as a college athlete, sparked a vision—a ministry dedicated to impacting young men through faith, mentorship, and the gospel of Jesus Christ.

Partnering with Steve Van Ooyen, Chris founded College Baseball Fellowship, inspired by the success of College Golf Fellowship, to bring that vision to life.
