Shaun Hover is spreading the gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ to the world with his skateboard, according to a story on Homtownlife.com.
“In L.A., there are so many skateboarders. I skate down the sidewalk and see guys skating and start talking to them. It makes it easy, I guess. Sometimes I feel like I’m cheating,” the Rochester Hills native said with a laugh. “When I have a board, it makes it more comfortable to talk with someone on the street because skateboarding is such a street sport.”. . In Thailand, we were going around to different villages, getting to know people, teaching the kids English,” he said. “When I’d pull out my skateboard, everyone would come and gather around. They were fascinated … it made them more interested in what we were offering.”
Love the passion, but nothing blows a good skate session faster than when someone starts preaching. But then hopefully Shaun is a little stealthier than that.

Why would you throw in that last line? You know full well that Christian Hosoi is a man of the cloth, and yet you have such a lame ending to this otherwise cool news story.
If you skate l.a. you would know how nice it is to have someone say hello to you when you roll up to a new spot. I’ve lived here for 10 years and shaun is the first person to do that…
Hosoi is someone who should be looked up to. He turned his life around. He is able to get what needs in his life from religion.
