All of us hope that our life will ultimately make a difference. We hope that when it is all said and done the imprint we leave will be more like a hand placed in wet cement, that when the cement sets, the handprint is there as long as the cement exists.

Maybe too many of us fear that our imprint may be more like a hand stuck in a bucket of water….pull it out, and within about 15 seconds you can’t even tell it was ever there!

Cheryl and I spent the last week with some folks who are making an imprint that lasts. We were honored to speak to coaches and their spouses at Coach’s Camp for FCA. Dickey Clark stands at the helm giving it great leadership, and we saw men and women who are committed to making an eternal difference in the lives of students in high school and college. These are folks putting “Christ’s imprint” in the wet concrete of student’s lives…many who never darken the doors of a church before they meet a Christian coach!

Did you have one of those in your life? I did. Tell me about him or her?

Are you a coach and want to accomplish that? What are you doing to make it happen?
