Support our mission to change a culture, one man at a time – https://menofiron.org/donateThis week we wrap up our Faith in Sports Series with Lancaster Stormers Chaplain Josh Beers. Josh grew up in a Christian home with faith at the forefront, but it was sports that he worshipped. "I lived for whatever athletic season I was in. What I was worshipping was temporal, and I was living for the next moment and competition." God got ahold of Josh as a freshman in college, and that's where his faith journey truly began. As Josh gave his life to Jesus he believed that sports would have to go to the back burner, but God had other plans."I began using sports as a platform to point people to Jesus, build character and make disciples." - Josh BeersJosh dives into the importance of mentorship in the sports world and in his own life. "In my own walk I am always looking for that man who is a few years ahead of me and asking them questions so they can sharpen me." In the sports world players have coaches who are teaching them, mentoring them and sharpening them to take it to the next level. Iron sharpening iron is all about what does the next step look like in your journey. Where can you find that man, that mentor to sharpen you? Most men who are struggling to find a mentor are not intentionally pursuing it or are afraid to ask. We all need people in our lives who see things in us that we don't see ourselves. The enemy wants us to be isolated, we need to break through that shell and admit we need help. It's actually a sign of strength to admit that we need a mentor. We are all going through the same battles together, how do we lean into that?If you are struggling in your role as a husband, father or leader, we would love to be a resource for you, contact us today – menofiron.org/contact-usYou can now watch the Men of Iron Podcast on YouTube – www.youtube.com/@men_of_iron.
