What if a football camp could change the culture of an entire community?

That question drives this conversation in this episode of Consulting from the Couch. We sit down for a fantastic interview with Ken Lovell, Director and Minister with Coastal NC Fellowship of Christian Athletes, whose mission is to bring everything together in Christ through the influence of coaches and athletes.

Ken shares his journey from the Marine Corps to ministry, unpacking how purpose—not position—has guided his leadership across four counties. He walks us through the growth of FCA’s Eastern NC Team Football Camp, the power of student-led huddles, and how discipleship—not just inspiration—creates lasting transformation.

From the “sandpaper” principle of accountability to the ripple effects of the FCA’s reach in Okinawa, this episode demonstrates how faith, leadership, and teamwork can transform communities.

Whether you’re a coach, parent, or leader, you’ll find practical wisdom on how to engage, equip, and empower the next generation through purpose.
