When the scoreboard shows a loss, it’s easy for a young athlete to feel like they’ve lost who they are. Missed shots, the bench, and the fear of letting the team down can weigh heavy on a kid’s heart, leaving them anxious, uncertain, and convinced their worth depends on performance. For parents and coaches, it’s painful to watch kids question themselves and their love for the game.

60 Days of Sports Devotions for Young Athletes offers a compassionate, faith-centered 60-day journey designed to help young athletes discover that true strength isn’t just physical skill—it’s knowing who they are beyond the scoreboard. Through short, engaging devotions, this audiobook addresses the real moments kids experience and offers practical spiritual tools to transform fear and pressure into confidence, resilience, and faith.

Listeners will learn to:

• See themselves as more than performance, even when they feel invisible
• Stay calm and focused during high-pressure moments
• Let go of mistakes and bounce back from rough games
• Navigate tough situations with coaches, teammates, and self-doubt
• Build daily habits that keep faith and confidence strong on and off the field

As one devotion reminds listeners: “Even if you’re not the fastest or strongest on the team, God chose you for a reason. You’re not just a jersey number. You’re His masterpiece.”

If you want a young athlete to play with freedom, handle challenges with faith, and remember they’re loved beyond any scoreboard, this 60-day devotional is the perfect companion.

Let each short chapter be the encouragement your young athlete needs to step onto the field with courage—knowing that true worth comes from something far greater than the game.
