Derwin Gray grew up without his father, but God placed coaches in his life who challenged him to become more than an athlete—they challenged him to become a man of character. When Coach Mike Sullivan benched Gray for skipping practice, he showed him that leadership isn't privilege; it's commitment, responsibility, humility, and setting an example.

Gray's story reminds Christian men that strong mentors can help call out the greatness God has placed in someone—and that we may be called to become that man for someone else. Listen and consider who God may be asking you to encourage, challenge, and help reach his potential.
