Inspired by Andrew Simpson’s book, The Youth Truth, this episode explores the deeper purpose of youth sports, moving beyond competition to cultivate character, resilience, and genuine connections. Designed for parents and coaches, we share actionable insights and heartfelt stories to help you navigate the fast-paced world of youth sports with authenticity and compassion. Join us to discover how to guide young athletes toward a life of purpose, equipping them for success both on and off the field.
This episode explores:
True Value of Sports: Youth sports should build character and teamwork, not just chase accolades.
Grounded in Truth: Use Philippians 4:8 to ensure sports’ significance aligns with reality and virtue.
Love Over Performance: Prioritize unconditional love, like Andrew’s father, who cheered quietly without criticism.
Shape the Future: Actions rooted in love, not ego, cultivate positive outcomes for children.
Beyond Sports: Prepare kids for life’s real challenges—relationships, finances, and health—beyond the field.
