EYES ON CHRIST Balance is huge in sports. But in Matthew 14 when Peter was walking on the water and eventually he began to sink, was that a balance issue? No, it really wasn’t a balance issue. He had the supernatural power of walking on water as he kept his eyes on Jesus Christ. His issue was his mind, not his feet, not his athletic ability. Jesus …

CHECKERS CHESS I grew up perhaps like you learning how to play checkers. And who doesn’t love checkers? King me. Man, I loved it. But when I was twelve years old my Uncle Johnny said, “Hey boy, I’m going to show you a man’s game.” He introduced me to chess and he taught me how to play chess. Similar board, but different pieces and different strateg…

STAND FOR JESUS Should we stand for the national anthem? I believe we should. My dad fought in World War II in African-American troops. They were segregated back then. African-Americans weren’t treated as equals even in our military. But my dad believed in America and he believed that we should stand for the flag, and I do to this day. But we make …

WHAT IS YOUR GOAL? What is your goal? So many times in the world of sports it’s about winning the championship, being the top player in the country, first team All-American, breaking a record, all those kind of things. A goal technically is the highest aim that you have. For the Christian, what should be our goal? Is it something that’s physical in…

I GOTTA HIT THEM IN THE MOUTH I once had a high school linebacker come to me and say, “Coach Brown, I gotta hit people in the mouth. I appreciate your view of Christianity and your Christian faith, but you know what, I need something tough. The Christians I know aren’t very tough. I gotta hit people in the mouth.” I just kept hearing that. I said, …

DOER OF THE WORD I had a college football teammate named Harry Walls. I think he was the only Christian on our football team. And what really ministered to me was that wasn’t just a hearer of God’s word, he was a doer. It says in James 1:25 – One who looks intently at the perfect law, the law of liberty, and abides by it, not having become a forget…

FREE THROW ANXIETY I’ll never forget it. Refereeing a basketball game, I handed the ball off to an eight-year-old little guy who had to take two free throws to send the game into overtime. He had to make both of them. Well little Johnny stood at that free throw line at eight years old and his knees began to wobble and all of a sudden he dropped the…

GLORIFY CHRIST WITH EFFORT One of the greatest plays I’ve ever seen in pro-football happened to be in a Super Bowl game. The Buffalo Bills versus the Dallas Cowboys. Of course we know that the Bills had lost like four Super Bowls in a row. And in one of those games it looked like, again, another loss. They were way behind with just a few minutes le…

Jesus made an amazing statement in Matthew 7:13-14. He said – There are two roads to life: One’s a very broad road, leads to destruction, many are on it. He said the other is a very narrow road that leads to life, only a few are on it. Which road are you on? You know, I talk to my players a lot and, you know, sometimes I see a tattoo or on them or …

Coaches have a lot of final says with their athlete. “Well Coach says this,” or “Coach says that.” It’s pretty powerful to have that kind of responsibility among your athletes. But are you sure you’re following the truth? How do we know what the truth is? In John 17:17, Jesus said – Thy word is truth. God’s word is truth. You know, there’s a lot of…

Years ago in the Rose Bowl, California played Georgia Tech for the national championship. A California defensive end picked up a loose fumble and started running toward the end zone, thinking he was going to score a touchdown for his team. Problem was, he ran sixty yards the wrong way. He was finally tackled on his own one-yard line. Georgia Tech g…

BROOK BERRINGER Here in Nebraska I think many of us sports fans are familiar with Brook Berringer. A great legendary quarterback. Was a backup player ended up starting when our starter, Tommie Frazier, went down with a knee injury in 1994. But Brook helped lead our team to a national championship. In 1995 (his senior year), Frazier beat him out for…

Episode #3 of Kingdom Sports Minute with Coach Brown Brown. He discusses the need to obey or submit to the governing authorities (Romans 13). God advises us to submit to authorities like sports officials and referees and show respect toward them. We are advised in the Bible that rebelling against authority is rebelling against God (Romans 13:2)…
