Philippians 2:3-4 (NKJV) says: Let nothing be done through selfish ambition or conceit, but in lowliness of mind let each esteem others better than himself. Let each of you look out not only for his own interests, but also for the interests of others. In Part 1 of this episode, I speak with Shedrick Elliott (from Episode 28 - Marriage Series) about his coaching journey throughout the years. You will hear about: who he was a young boy, what it was like growing up in church, lessons he learned from his Dad from a young age and their close relationship, what his college experiences were like as a young Christian including being exposed to pornography for the first time, what led him to suicide ideation in his junior year of college, his beginning stages with coaching track and how he became passionate about his job, his transition from coaching high school athletes to coaching at the collegiate level, the similarities between coaching and pastoring, how his athletes have encouraged him unexpectedly, how losing an athlete impacted him and his team, how he shares his faith as a coach, and more!
