Tools of the Trade Competing on God s Team

All coaches understand the call to "Huddle Up." Though not everyone coaches on the field, court, or diamond, most of us gather to share ideas, address challenges, or plan strategies. In the corporate world, it's a staff meeting. In the military, a briefing. When parents want to clear the air, it's a family conference. We're all coaching in some way, and there will always be a time to "Huddle Up." The Christ- centered principles in these studies help coaches and competitors reconnect, refocus, and reboot to meet daily challenges.
