Guys, just a quick reminder that our next book study begins this week; the first episode will be released on Friday, Feb. 3rd and then for the three remaining Fridays in February. The book we’ll be reading and discussing is Dr. Carl Trueman’s outstanding cultural examination titled Strange New World: How Thinkers and Activists Redefined Identity and Sparked the Sexual Revolution - get your copy today and read along with us!
Bio for Coach Vilade:
After finishing his successful college baseball career with Baylor University, James Vilade entered the world of coaching and has seen success at every level - from the pros to college and now even at the high school level. He understands that athletics is an avenue for success in life and takes his role and responsibility to mold boys into men very seriously, while having a ton of fun along the way! Coach V is not just a great baseball coach, he’s a great friend, and a great mentor for young men.
Coach V’s primary question for young guys - “What kind of person are you becoming along the way?” One of the main rules for life is how you treat those around you - learn to treat others well.
“Baseball is life” - would you buy that t-shirt?
Parenting fail - when the sport your child plays becomes more important than their character and the person they are becoming!
Common struggle for young men today - “handling the moment.” Don’t let the wins take you too high or the losses take you too low!
Men generally respond well to other guys calling them up to be better men - surround yourself with men who will do that for you…and you need to do that for others. “Show me your people and I’ll show you the man you’ll become.”
What’s the one thing you can tell a young man that will impact his life? “I love you.”
