What are the three greatest victories in sports history? See if you agree with this list.

1. Miracle on Ice. The U.S. Olympic team in 1980 came back from a 3-2 deficit to defeat the defending-champion Soviet Union hockey team.
2. Jesse Beats Hitler. Jesse Owens won four gold medals at the 1936 Summer Olympics. Adolf Hitler expected the Games to showcase Aryan supremacy, but the United States won 11 gold medals—six of which were earned by African American athletes.
3. The Greatest Game. The 1958 championship game was the first NFL playoff game to go into sudden-death overtime and is often called “The Greatest Game Ever Played.”

Luke 24 – Ultimate Victory

The Resurrection of Jesus Christ gives us the Ultimate Victory over death and the grave. Without Christ’s resurrection, death would be the ultimate defeat. Nothing comes close to this account in Luke 24. Christ has overcome the power of death! Knowing that Jesus died, was buried, and rose from the dead victorious over sin, death, and the grave should motivate us to coach and live our lives dedicated to the work of the Lord.

The Kingdom Coach and Athlete believe Jesus was raised from the dead in a glorified body, and they, too, will be raised and changed. They are motivated to stand firm and immovable in their faith.
