Whatever it Takes
“Don’t ask me to leave you and turn back. Wherever you go, I will go.” – Ruth 1:16 The match with our cross-town rival was going to be intense. The teams were evenly matched and it would take our best effort to get the victory.
Take a Knee
“Be still and know that I am God! I will be honored by every nation. I will be honored throughout the world.” – Psalm 46:10 Everybody take a knee!
Ladders & Crowns
“For the Lord takes delight in his people; he crowns the humble with salvation.” – Psalm 149:4 Another football season is coming to a close. Teams have made their way through the regular season schedule. For the past few weeks, we have been saturated with bowl games and All-Star games.
Keeping it Simple
“We have found the Messiah!” – John 1:41 Most successful coaches have learned the art of effective communication. Coaches are teachers in the truest sense, but our classrooms look a little different. We teach on grassy fields, hardwood courts and synthetic tracks instead of rooms lined with desks, tables and chairs.
The Want
“More than that, I also consider everything to be a loss in view of the surpassing value of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord. Because of Him, I have suffered the loss of all things and consider them filth, so that I may gain Christ.” – Philippians 3:8 Coaches desire great things for themselves and the athletes they teach. This desire drives them to compete, pursue, and strive toward their ultimate goal for the season.
