SEC Football TV Show


God has plans much bigger than mine. The idea for an SEC Football TV show keeps getting brought up to me. I know what it would look like. A traveling show on a forty foot RV showcasing SEC football and fans from behind the scenes. Interviews with former players, journalist, sports radio guys, SEC fans etc.

I've found a production group in Promoxie who likes the idea and has affordable rates. Comcast has several time slots available for a big broadcast in the metro Atlanta area.

We need a host sponsor who wants their business to be showcased on an SEC football show. The host sponsor would be integrated into the show.

I just bought http://www.secfootball.tv/ and we will start putting info on it soon.

This project is bigger than me. That's how God works. All I know to do is ask for God's grace. I know He can do it. Praise the Lord!

Go After Your Dream by Coach J

A Message from Coach J

God gives us all things that we are passionate about. Discover it, nurture it and get involved with your passion!

Fortunately, I get to meet a lot of young people when I'm out in public. My message to them is always the same. "Go after your dream." Do what you love, follow your heart and pursue a career path that gets you excited in the morning.

The next question that follows is what should I do? Start with volunteering or get any job in the chosen field. If you want to be a writer, start writing stories about your favorite teams and publish them on some place like Bleacher Report. Fans and writers will give you feedback which will increase your writing skills.

If you want to be a coach, start working with a high school program as a volunteer. Turn off the tv and start spending time with people working in your dream job. You have to pay some dues in whatever you pursue so the sooner you get started, the better off you will be.

When you first launch out, the criticism can be tough because the dream is so close to your heart. But as time goes on, you learn to welcome it, because usually what is meant to be for your destruction, can be the spark that pushed you over the top.

Whatever you choose, there will be resistance. If you love it, you will pursue it regardless of the obstacles. As people punch holes in your dream, it forces you to make the dream real. Making it real means connecting a revenue stream to your chosen field.

Great ideas are a dime a dozen. If you know your dream, you have opened the first door. But there are many doors on this journey. What seperates the winners from the losers is the execution of a sound strategy. Next time, we will talk about strategy...

If you want me to coach you to your dream job, call me at 770-844-9377. I don't want anybody to miss out on their dream, so I use a sliding scale based on your income. Life is short, go for your dream!

Believe, Trust and Obey

We have just finished up the Easter Weekend. I believe I have done the things God has asked me to do. I've entered into the sports world, I've stepped up to the speaker's platform to be a voice for God.

I've submitted, obeyed and now its my time to trust. I'm expecting miracles and favor from people whom I've never contacted and that way I know it's God and not me. I'm believing that their are events being orchestrated right now that will positively effect my speaking career so that I can impact lives for Jesus Christ. My steps are ordered so there is no reason to worry. Just obey.

My story is one that only God could have mapped out. My biggest qualification is I'm available for God to use me. I love SEC sports. God is an awesome Father. Let the miracles begin...
