Christian leaders in the sport of football, with Eric Hehman and Joel Penner.
Welcome to Episode #37 of the Encouragers United Podcast.
American football is consider to be the most popular sport in the United States. Participants and fans enjoy all levels of the game, from professional and college football, high school and youth programsl. As of 2012, nearly 1.1 million high school athletes and 70,000 college athletes play the sport in the United States annually. The National Football League, the most popular American sport governing body, has the highest average attendance of any professional sports league in the world. Its championship game, the Super Bowl, ranks among the most-watched sporting events in the world. The league has an annual revenue of around US$13 billion.- Wikipedia
Many young men, including me, began our athletic careers playing this great game. Throughout my formative years, I learned invaluable life lessons like teamwork, perseverance, courage and discipline from a host of great coaches who instilled in me an ethic of integrity, responsibility, passion and respect.
As I have matured to become a leader in the athletic related sector of our society, I believe that sport is a valuable "trojan horse" to capture the attention of young people, and teach lessons that will last long into adulthood. I, and many other faithful Christian disciples have tried to integrate our faith deeply into the strategy and execution of our teams and organizations. Eric Hehman and Joel Penner, both head football coaches at the university level, are successfully creating cultures of honor and strength, leading young men and ultimately their campus communities in a passionate pursuit of God's standard for life, conduct and relationships.
