Character Coach Devotionals

Character Coach Messages

Be Brief

  • Stay under 7 minutes!
  •  Time yourself as you prepare. Do not abuse the Coach’s wishes…this is the quickest way to lose respect and trust. 


Be Personal


Sharing a personal story or experience makes a great impact and it will help you connect with the audience. 


Be Simple 


Do not try to cover too much information. Be simple and focused. Give them something they can remember and repeat. 


Be Motivational


Remember that these athletes are about to go into (or have just finished) intense competition. Always try to end your message with a charge for them to take action! What is it that you want them to do as a result of what they have just heard? 

One of the roles of the Character Coach would be to give brief (7-10 minute) character talks or lessons each week to the team. The following links contain 20 character talks that revolve around a specific character trait. These lessons are a powerful resource and are to be used as a guide for an FCA Character Coach.
