Navigating Youth Sports
Youth sports has become an all-consuming pursuit. Brian Smith and Ed Uszynski believe if we don't own the process of discipling our kids as they play sports, sports culture will do it for us. How can you move from spectators on the sidelines of your kids' spiritual lives to mentors of their souls? Navigating youth sports—don't miss Chris Fabry Live.
