sports player situation
I talk to our players about life and situations and doing the right thing all the time.
voice way subtle
I have yet to hear God's audible voice, although I have often felt led by God in more subtle ways.
football winning inspiring-football
Winning would create greater potential for change than talk alone.
dad children father
But there's no substitute for a full-time dad. Dads who are fully engaged with their kids overwhelmingly tend to produce children who believe in themselves and live full lives.

You can have an impact anywhere you are.
want hearing trouble
If we have trouble hearing Him, He will faithfully work in our lives until we are pointed in the direction He wants us to go.
believe numbers lists
We have a number of difficulties facing our nation, but I believe fatherlessness is right at the top of the list.
no-excuses excuse explanation
No excuses. No explanations.
football winning games
When it's over, it's over is part of football's greatest appeal to me. When a game ends, win or lose, it's time to prepare for the next one.
thinking want circus
Sometimes I think God wants there to be a circus so we can show there's another way to respond.
player discipline able
There are weaknesses that you have to understand and it takes a lot of discipline for the players to be able to play it effectively and have confidence in what they're doing.
successful being-successful who-you-are
Be successful not just in what you do, but in who you are.
football team play
What's important is not the uniform or the number, and it's not what team you play for or whether anyone else sees your value; it's who you are on the inside. And when you're in Christ, that's never going to change.
believe taken should-have
I wouldn’t have taken him. Not because I don’t believe Michael Sam should have a chance to play, but I wouldn’t want to deal with all of it. [...] It’s not going to be totally smooth things will happen.
