Football Player Colt McCoy Owes Everything To Jesus Christ

Washington Redskins quarterback Colt McCoy shares how faith guides him each and every day. After a successful college football career, McCoy was drafted in the NFL in 2010.

Many people think that success is measured by how many trophies you have or the number of wins next to your name. But McCoy knows that there is so much more to life than man-made possessions. “For me, I am successful in life because I have Jesus Christ living inside of me. I don’t think God necessarily cares about wins and losses for me at Texas. I think He cares about my faith and what I am doing to make sure that I come and live in Heaven with Him one day and who I am bringing with me.”

This inspiring football player has put Christ first since he was just a young boy and it’s not afraid to let everyone know. His incredible I Am Second testimony truly showcases the love and faith he has in the Lord. McCoy even went as far as to say, “I feel like God has raised me. He’s made me the man that I am. And He’s put me where He wants me.”

What a great example for the younger generation of a faith-filled athlete who gives all the credit to God. I hope we continue to see other athletes stand up for their faith and not be afraid to proclaim Jesus as their Lord and Savior.

John 3:16 “For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.”
