ministry timeline

Our lives were radically changed by God while playing or coaching sports. Every week there seems to be a story in the news about an athlete or coach that has hurt themselves, others or their program because of poor decisions. For the past 26 years, God has given us a burden to reach those in the athletic community and equip them to maximize their influence for God's glory. He continues to do that today through the ministry of 925.

Steve came to Christ while coaching at FSU.He has been at GT for 15+ years as a player development coach for the Yellow Jackets. He is impacting lives spiritually as well as physically as he serves as director/advisor for GT 925.

a call to influence

As a former NCAA Division I student-athlete and coach, and chaplain to a professional sports team, I know first hand the power of sports to bring people together, inspire others to dream, and to influence the culture. We are so blessed to have the opportunity to impact the lives of those in the collegiate athletic community while serving some of the most gifted leaders on the planet.

GAME PLAN

How we will accomplish the vision is simple: REACH. EQUIP. SEND.
