COACHES MINISTRY
TO AND THROUGH THE COACH
The Coaches Ministry focuses on engaging the heart of the coach first.
Coaches are the heart of FCA. Our vision is to see coaches transformed, who then by their coaching, bring transformation to the people of sports. We desire to see biblical coaches who are Christians who happen to coach, rather than just coaches who happen to be Christians. When coaches become followers of Jesus Christ, their character, their relationships and their approach to coaching will be authentic
The coach is the one of the most influential individuals in our society. It has been said that a coach will influence more people in one year than most people will in a lifetime. FCA seeks to equip and encourage coaches to grow in their faith and become transformational in how they coach their athletes and influence other coaches.
In Christ, we have a Greater potential than what is on a scoreboard. Through His sacrifice on the cross, we have the promise of a new life. When we surrender our lives to Jesus, we give up the old expectations to gain a new identity in Christ. The pressure to perform evaporates, and our performance is transformed. We no longer compete for something greater, but for Someone Greater. We play with a new purpose: He must become Greater, and we must become less.
“He must increase, but I must decrease.” - John 3:30
FCA Coaches Bible Studies are designed for a small group with coaches willing to commit to studying God’s Word and applying His truths on and off the field and court.
A targeted study with a unique coach’s setting/environment that encourages and challenges coaches to live and compete according to biblical principles.
An FCA Huddle is a certified small group Bible Study that coaches teams at all levels on campus and in community club or travel sports. A Huddle can consist of a coaching staff or it can be made up of coaches from various teams. A coaches huddle can be led by:
