I feel that God wants me to coach; otherwise, he wouldn't have put the desire in me.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I really believe God called on me to coach, and that is the reason I stayed in it for so long.
God's been good to me, He really has. I don't know why he picked me out... Just think about it: I virtually coached in my hometown. From the middle of the Meadowlands field, it can't be but a couple of miles. I was lucky to do that.
It's been a constant struggle with my athletic career to identify myself as a child of God and understand that His love is unconditional for us; it's not conditional like fans, or coaches, or even myself.
I started out wanting to coach football.
You and I are players, God's our coach, and we're playing the biggest game of all. We have a loving God that made us. We need to get on His team. It says in His word, there's only one way to Him and that's through Jesus Christ.
I have no desire to coach basketball.
Will I become a coach in the future? No way. I'd never be able to put up with someone like me.
Nobody thought I would be a great coach.
My own personal connection with God was not in a religious sense, so I wasn't really thinking in that way when I got the role and when I started doing it.
I am convinced that God wanted me to be a baseball player.
