I feel that the progress I have made as a coach, as well as a person, is a direct result of the growth that I have made through my Church callings.

The ability we have to handle this adversity will determine the degree of success that we will have in life.

I told Mom I wouldn't need to run fast. When I play baseball, I'll just hit them out of the park. Then I'll be able to walk.
