In this episode of Armor in the Arena, Coach Terry walks through the story of Job, from Satan’s challenge to Job’s losses, and focuses on God’s response. When the Lord answers Job (Job 38–41), He points to creation: the constellations, the oceans, the wild animals - every intricate detail He designed and sustains. That same God, who names the stars, also feeds the birds and clothes the fields (Matthew 6).

This is a perspective reset for athletes: the God who runs the universe hasn’t forgotten you. Your trials are not surprises to Him; they pass through the Father’s hands. Let this reframe your season—compete with peace, anchored in His sovereignty and care.

Scripture:

Job 1-2; Job 38-41; Matthew 6:26–30; Colossians 3:23-24; Ephesians 6:10-18

Key Takeaways:

• God’s response centers on who He is, not on why we suffer

• He knows every detail of creation and cares personally for you

• Trials are filtered through the Father’s hands

• Compete with confidence: sovereign God, present help

Before the first whistle blows and the scoreboard lights up, there’s one thing every athlete needs to do — pray.

In this first episode of Armor in the Arena, Coach Terry leads athletes, coaches, and teams in “A Prayer for the Season.” Rooted in Ephesians 6:10–18 and Colossians 3:23–24, this short devotional reminds us that the real battle begins long before game day — in our hearts.

Whether you’re in the locker room, on the bus, or walking onto the field, take a moment to invite God into your season and put on His armor before you compete.

🎙️ Let’s huddle up… and then step back into the arena.
