A Christian coach should exemplify Christ in their life and have a personal relationship with Him on a daily basis. He/she should live a life that is led and empowered by the Holy Spirit; therefore, they must be consciously thinking God’s thoughts and consciously performing His way.

​

Their attitude must reflect those of Jesus Christ and realize that they are an extension of their church’s outreach ministry and that everyone around them, both members and non-members alike, is constantly critiquing their actions.

 

A coach’s primary goal must be to develop young people through athletics to become Christ-like, therefore, they must build self-esteem, motivate, correct, and love each team member with the love of Christ.
