EP. 1 LINK: https://t.co/rM0xFVntLK
I played for Nick Saban, Bill Belichick, and Sean Payton.
I studied under some of the greatest coaching minds in the history of professional football. And after the Lord saved me, I realized something that changed everything.
Every single leadership principle that made those teams thrive is biblical. They just did it for the glory of man instead of the glory of God.
Here is what I mean.
Belichick taught us to do our jobs. Scripture commands us to work as unto the Lord, not for the approval of men. (Col. 3:23)
Belichick held Tom Brady to a higher standard than anyone else. Scripture says to whom much is given, much is required. (Luke 12:48)
Belichick cut the cancer immediately, no matter the cost. Scripture tells us that a little leaven leavens the whole lump. (Gal. 5:9)
Belichick sacrificed personal credit and took responsibility for every loss. Scripture calls leaders to be servants first. (Matthew 20:26)
Brady sacrificed personal stats for the good of the team. Scripture says do nothing out of selfish ambition, but in humility consider others above yourself. (Phil. 2:3)
Brady could encourage a teammate and confront him in the same breath. Scripture says speak the truth in love. (Eph. 4:15)
These men did not know they were pulling from eternal, biblical commands. But the principles worked. They always work. Because truth is truth whether the man wielding it knows its source or not.
Now imagine this.
If these principles built a two-decade dynasty in professional football with men who did not know the Lord, what would God do through His church if we humbled ourselves and followed the same playbook?
What would happen in your marriage if you coached yourself harder than you coach anyone else?
What would happen in your home if you cut the cancers of laziness, passivity, and selfishness?
What would happen in your leadership if you stopped protecting your ego and started serving your team?
The blueprint is not new.
The playbook has been written for two thousand years.
The question is whether you are willing to run it.
I spent 10 years in the NFL and the best locker rooms I ever walked into operated on principles that Scripture laid out long before football existed.
Stop looking for a new framework.
Open the Book.
And do your job.
@espn what’s the deal?!
I have ESPNplusselect through Disney+ and through Verizon and I still can’t watch any of the ESPN college football today. And… No heads up about it. That is not cool.
Members of the Ohio State football team are holding their second Fall Kickoff “An invitation to Jesus”.
Caleb Downs, Sonny Styles, Luke Montgomery and many other Buckeyes are talking with hundreds about their Faith journey.
A night of fellowship, baptism, unity and testimony:
Dan Deluca is one of the best in the business and I am grateful for this article. The rest of the story is that it is appropriate that this HOF induction is on our 37th anniversary. Everyone who knows our program knows there is no better Coach’s wife than Susie Kramer.GO NAPLES!
If you haven’t read Alex Bernson’s TELL YOUR CHILDREN, you should. It doesn’t matter if you’re the parent or child. The truth will set you free. I was 34 years in public schools and not once did I hear a teacher say “I wish Bobby would smoke weed before class.”
@AlexBerenson
This note hit my inbox last week (amazing she found TYC, it’s ~six years old).
Worth reading. She’s right. More than ever, a lot of people are walking around with subclinical psychosis thanks to high-THC cannabis use. And some are VERY high functioning. Like valedictorians.
Love to Coach Martin and his crew!! Naples High alumni and fans who haven’t made plans need to make them now to get to Orlando tomorrow night.
Only two kinds of people in the world… Golden Eagles and those who want to be Golden Eagles… Sse Ya in Orlando tomorrow night!
The @naplesfootball team is in the state semifinals for the first time under Rick Martin.
With a defense that’s allowed just 3.3 points per game in the playoffs, the Golden Eagles have every right to feel good about their chances against Jones.

@ShawnSimeon5 Shawn is the total package, on and off the field. I am fired up to watch him lead his team in the playoffs. It is going to be a blast watching him represent us in college beginning next year.
