đź“ŤWhat happens when a coach cares more about eternal purpose than just wins and losses? In this inspiring and emotional episode, David Rutherford sits down with legendary Wheaton College football coach Mike Swider, a man who led his team to 9 championships and transformed countless lives through servant leadership, unwavering faith, and deep integrity.
Coach Swider lays out his five core principles that shaped his program and his players:
Fear God
Trust God
Seek God First
Reject the Philosophy of the World
Never Forget the Cost of Your Salvation
With stories of hardship, victory, and legacy, this episode challenges us to reflect on who we are, what we believe, and how we lead. This isn’t just a conversation about coaching—it’s a spiritual blueprint for every man who wants to lead with truth, courage, and faith.
