Orioles Second-base man  Brian Roberts talks about priorities, decision making, and keeping God the center of your life.

• As a young athlete Brian said his career and life were out of control. How easy is it to get out of control in your life? What leads you to living that way?
• Living the dream as a professional athlete, he made baseball his god. What is god in your life right now? How did it get that way?
• How do we get so wrapped up in living for ourselves and not for God?
• Read Isaiah 44:6. How do you need to put this verse into practice in your life?
• Brian confessed to making poor decisions. When you find yourself in that place, how do you get yourself out of it? Where does God fit into that equation?
• What areas of your life are you putting before you relationship with God?

• Coach Coale talks about being a part of her program as more than just being a player in it. What was she referring to with that point?
• How can sport teach you more about life and the skills necessary to make it in the world today?
• Why does she feel responsible for passing on these life skills to her players?
• Read 1 Timothy 4:6-8. Athletic training is important to an athlete. Why is spiritual training more important?
• What do you think godliness means? How is godliness beneficial in every area of your life?
• Coach Coale believes it is important not only to prepare her players for what is next, but wants them to apply it themselves.

Has your cell phone battery ever died? Mine sure has. Every night I plug in my cell so that it can recharge. But if it doesn't charge long enough, its battery dies early. And a quick tricklecharge in the car doesn't seem to help at all.

Have you ever considered how much sleep for your body is like recharging your own battery? When we don't get enough sleep, we run out of charge.
