Raising Expectations with Pastor Joe Schofield Championship Comebacks, Coaching Your Own Kids, and Faith That Wins with Stephen Greek Texas high school football coach and author Stephen Greek joins Pastor Joe Schofield and the Raising Expectations team to talk about championship comebacks, coaching his own three sons, and what it truly means to win in faith, marriage, and business. Team Roll Call and the Gospel Message Pastor Joe Schofield opens the Monday broadcast the way he always does, thanking listeners around the world and promising that God has raised their expectations through answered prayer over the past week. He notes a couple of the regular panel are away on business but introduces those present: his wife Melba Schofield, a Southwestern Seminary graduate; Dr. Paul Hall, a retired pastor and theologian calling in from Lompoc, California; and Dr. Craig Thayer, nicknamed Tank, a surgeon, former Olympic water polo coach, and author of Saved, joining late from Dalton, Georgia. Schofield also introduces, without him joining tonight, Ron Greer of McKinney, Texas, a former pastor who once ran for Congress and now counsels men through Man in the Mirror. Before the guest arrives, Schofield restates the ministry's core message, that Jesus Christ died and rose so believers can spend eternity in Heaven, and previews a recent guest he describes as a former lieutenant governor of California running again alongside conservative candidate Steve Hilton, plus an upcoming interview with the state comptroller. Meet Coach Stephen Greek Schofield introduces the night's guest, Stephen Greek, a Texas state champion football coach, athletic director, speaker, and author of the Building of Champions leadership platform found at goscore.life. He describes Greek's philosophy of translating coaching principles into everyday leadership, and introduces his wife Daisy and their three sons, Daniel, Nathan, and Joshua. Greek joins warmly, saying his grandfather pastored a South Texas farming community for more than fifty-five years and used to say he was "in high cotton," surrounded by good people, a line he borrows to thank the panel for having him on. Schofield recalls following Greek's coaching career and his sons for years, describing hallway hugs after church and letters from listeners thanking God for the family. With introductions done, the panel turns to Greek's six state championship appearances and four championship wins, setting up a conversation about faith, leadership, fatherhood, and what it really means to win. Comeback Wins and Championship Nerves Asked what the locker room feels like in the final two minutes of a title game, Greek says three of his four championship wins came from behind on nearly the last play. He recalls a 2009 interception in the end zone to seal his first title, a tight district win the following season, and a 2015 game requiring an eighty-yard drive in under two minutes, after which he had to stop his players from celebrating before the clock hit zero. He also describes trailing forty-one to seventeen in 2017 and telling his team only to give their all, then rallying to win forty-two to forty-one. Greek says the final seconds of a win feel exhilarating as players storm the field, but insists coaching, marriage, and business all run on the same fuel: belief without faith is impossible, he says, tying the phrase directly to the show's title as he tells the panel that "you raise expectations" every time you aim for a goal and keep believing despite setbacks. Faith on the Field, Public and Private Craig Thayer asks how Greek brought Christianity into coaching across more than two decades split between public and private Texas schools. Greek says Christian academies expect open faith, comparing the freedom to a preacher's amen corner, while public schools call for a quieter approach he likens to "black ops," believers letting their light shine covertly. He credits leadership author John Maxwell, whom he met through Zig Ziglar's circle in Plano, with the phrase "earn the right to share your faith," meaning excellence in the work itself opens the door to conversation. Greek also praises first responders and the military, invoking the recent anniversary of September eleventh to describe people who run toward tragedy as evidence of good in the world. He tells the panel that whether in a locker room or a classroom, the goal is the same, to be respectful and strategic until people are ready to hear a message of hope, at which point he says he tries simply to point them toward Jesus. Winning What Matters Most Paul Hall asks Greek what troubles him most about how high achievers define winning. Greek says many leaders he mentors, corporate executives and coaches alike, hit every professional target while their marriages quietly fall apart, their spouses grow lonely, or their children struggle unnoticed. He says he has not always gotten the balance right himself, quoting a Michael W. Smith lyric about...
