Show Notes
Feel like youth sports have discipled your heart more than church has? Fear, control, and post-game critiques turn you into the "older brother" judging performance instead of the welcoming father extending grace. Brian Smith and Ed Uszynski, authors of Away Game: A Christian Parent's Guide to Navigating Youth Sports, call parents to self-examination, the radical discipline of silence, and redefining wins by fruit of the Spirit—not stats. Reclaim sports as true discipleship ground.
