Yesterday during our last team meeting of the year we had 3 guys raise their hands to accept Christ! We didn’t have the year that we wanted, but that is better than any Championship that could ever be won! #WinToday

One of my former players who is in the navy sent me this text this morning! It’s bigger than a ball. Come to know Christ! Everyday that goes by and you don’t accept him is losing. Having a relationship with Christ is the ultimate WIN! #WinToday
