Shaq Funds The Education Of 15 Friends, Pays For Their Master's Degrees
Shaquille O'Neal, or simply "Shaq," is more than just a basketball legend; he's a beacon of generosity and kindness, embodying the spirit of being the hands and feet of Jesus to those around him. In a recent interview on the "Be Better Off Show," Shaq shared a heartwarming story that epitomizes his commitment to uplifting others through acts of benevolence.
Reflecting on his early business ventures, Shaq recalled feeling sidelined in meetings due to his lack of a degree. Determined to break through barriers and support those in similar situations, Shaq embarked on a journey to further his education. Returning to Louisiana State University to complete his undergraduate studies, he earned a Bachelor's degree in 2000, all while continuing to excel on the basketball court.
But Shaq's pursuit of knowledge didn't stop there. Opting to earn his Master's degree from the University of Phoenix, Shaq made a profound decision that would impact the lives of others. Despite the institution's predominantly online format, Shaq advocated for in-person instruction, ensuring that 15 individuals could enroll alongside him. By generously covering their tuition, Shaq provided his friends with the opportunity to pursue their educational dreams, embodying the principle of giving back and being a blessing to others. Can you imagine how life-changing his act of kindness was to those 15 classmates?
Yet, Shaq's journey of giving didn't end with education. In 2012, he achieved a monumental milestone by earning a doctoral degree in education (Ed.D.) from Barry University Florida. This remarkable achievement, fueled by Shaq's commitment to lifelong learning and his mother's influence, serves as a testament to his unwavering dedication and generosity of spirit.
Beyond his academic endeavors, Shaq's acts of kindness and entrepreneurial ventures continue to make a profound impact on communities worldwide. Whether through his charitable initiatives or his infectious spirit of kindness, Shaq exemplifies what it means to be the hands and feet of Jesus, spreading love and compassion wherever he goes.
Acts 20:35 "In everything I did, I showed you that by this kind of hard work we must help the weak, remembering the words the Lord Jesus himself said: ‘It is more blessed to give than to receive.’”

The temptation to be lazy is ever-present. Just like any sin, laziness is exchanging long-term benefits for partaking in temporary pleasure. It is a seemingly easy road, but it leads to consequences.
