Tony Dungy

Here is the video from tonight - Tony Dungy giving an insight into what goes through the mind of an NFL coach. He talks about his time at the Buccaneers and at the Colts - and what it's like to follow Jesus at the same time. He has some great thoughts such as "How you respond to failure, how you respond to disappointment, says a lot more than how you do in successes."


But he also talks about the more spiritual aspect of his life.

My favourite passage in the bible is where Christ says "What would it profit a man to gain the whole world but forfeit his soul?" And with 31 years in the national football league I have seen that a lot.

It's a quote that Dungy lives out in his life. He sums it up with this philosophy.

Every decision I make in life I am going to make it through the lens of Jesus Christ. I'm going to put him out there first - and my own feelings, my own thoughts, my own desires are going to be second. It's that simple. And if we do that Christ promised that he would come into our lives, he'd be our head coach and he'd guide us to that victory, that ultimate victory.
