Starting Right

Life Lesson From a Football Failure


Listen Later

We all need confidence but what if your confidence was sabotaging your success? Join me, Danny Mac, as we kick off your day with a captivating story from the world of  American College football that highlights the pitfalls and dangers of pride. Imagine a wide-open receiver, just steps away from a touchdown, who fumbles it all by celebrating too soon. This episode is more than just a recount of a sports blunder; it's an exploration of pride as a spiritual roadblock, echoing C.S. Lewis's insightful words and drawing parallels with the Biblical tale of the Pharisee and the tax collector.

We'll unravel the lessons from three compelling characters—the boastful football player, the self-righteous Pharisee, and the humble tax collector. Ponder with us on how these stories urge introspection and honest self-assessment, as advised by Paul in Romans 12:3. Grab your morning coffee, sit back, and let's unlock the secrets to staying grounded and true to ourselves.
