Serving

Where does serving fit in the world of competitive sports? Team sports and even individual sports require others to help. This is serving as it has been worked out through repetitive drills that no one but God and an athlete sees, through tough decisions in the heat of the final minutes of the game, through the crucible of the highly competitive sports world where being a servant makes you a good teammate, a competitive player and a model of Christ. Serving is a unique devotional that provides meaningful readings to help athletes and coaches understand how to have the attitude and heart of a servant, to think of others before themselves, even in the heat of competition. Learn from those who have found what true winners know. When they have served others, win or lose, they are modeling the very heart of Christ.

Teamwork

If there's a recurrent theme that runs through any team sport, it's fairly obvious that it's likely to have something to do with teamwork. But strangely, there seems to be an epidemic in the modern world of sports that breeds personal agendas, selfish attitudes and win-at-all-cost mentalities. The Teamwork devotional offers a very different way of looking at teamwork, one that advocates dependence, empowering and equipping, working, celebrating and hurting together, as well as appreciating each individual's giftedness. In these meaningful readings, coaches and athletes will discover how a band of brothers are even stronger when they become a band of believers, how to spot the enemies of team unity and how to build an amazing team. Learn from those who have found a higher plane of play when there is unity within the team.

The Greatest Coach Ever

Coach John Wooden's teams won 10 NCAA mens basketball championships at UCLA and Sporting News magazine named him the greatest coach of all time. Yet decades after he retired and now after his passing, his wisdom capsulized so clearly in his famous Pyramid of Success continues to guide new generations of athletes, coaches, and people of all walks of life. In The Greatest Coach Ever, the Fellowship of Christian Athletes features 40 tributes from athletes, coaches, and other influential leaders like Bobby Bowden, Tom Osborne, Sue Semrau, Tony Dungy, Mike Singletary, Tamika Catchings, Joe Girardi, Jim Tressel and David Robinson playing honor to Coach Wooden and reflecting on how his example has challenged and changed them. Their stories can challenge and change your life, too. Coach Wooden appreciated the tributes and the honor of being called the greatest coach ever, but felt uncomfortable with the title. He was eager to see that this book points to the one whom he calls the greatest coach ever. I am happy being remembered as a man of integrity. I like that, --John Wooden, May 21 2010.

Integrity

In the competitive world of sports, there is an ever present temptation not to be a man or woman of integrity. After all, who will know? Were you in bounds, did you foul, was it a false start, does it really matter if your athlete uses steroids? The value God places on honesty and authenticity is essential for true winners. The Fellowship of Christian Athletes identifies integrity as a value that is essential in all walks of life, whether on the field, in the classroom or in the business world. Learn how to demonstrate Christlikeness privately and publicly with Integrity. Comprised of a Bible verse, a story, a principle, an application and a prayer, these inspirational readings foster the core value of integrity. Topics covered include: integrity in the face of defeat, when the other team cheats, when it’s difficult, when no one is looking, when you're on the bench and when you score the winning run.

Get in the Game

A competitive athlete trains for one thing- the game. Having the skills and knowing how to play aren't enough- you need to perform when it matters. Yet so many of those same athletes live in a spiritual offseason. They have faith. They know the Word. But they sit back and watch others take the lead. Get in the Game encourages athletes to transfer their drive and determination to the spiritual realm and shows that there is far more than a game on the line.
