Alex Kendrick, James Blackwell, Jim McBride, Shannen Fields, Tracy Goode.
Alex Kendrick, directed and starred in this film. Playing the SC Head coach, shows that as a coach he is both human, and understanding when he learns that some of the people at the high school want him replaced. The principle also a God fearing man stops by and tells him, this is the Word of God, and I think this is the message he wants you to hear. The principle reinstitutes the word tot he Coach. Unable to have children with his wife, and through prayer and the power of God and the word in the Bible, the Coach, brings the young men to prayer, and teaches them that the Power Of God, is the ultimate to rely on.
As the coach uses some questionable tactics in training, you see as they go into the first several games, they are loosing. Then all of a sudden there is a great turn around as the team slowly comes around to face God and to bear witness to God and his savior to the earth. Prayer youth groups start up again. And the word and the understanding and the Grace of God flow through the school. God is so understanding of the coach, that the team begins to win, slowly at first, then things heat up. As you watch this film, you will see like so many of us that remember when God was behind this Country nothing was impossible.
God proves his Love to the Coach in many ways, allowing the team to excel beyound what they thought was possible. As the film is slowly closing, wait until the very end of the film, and you will see what changes have happened in the Coaches personal life, and the happiness that God brought back into the lives of those who worship and praise his Holy name.
If we need inspiration for our youth football Coaches, and our Hish School football then this is the movie for all coaches.
