Maybe you’re the kind of person that has a hard time believing in yourself. Perhaps in life or in football or in relationships you’ve been beat down, oppressed, disregarded or otherwise so maligned that you no longer have a voice or lack any sort of confidence. Or, maybe you’re in a different position — maybe you’re a person who has power, prestige, and influence. Maybe you’re in a position to elevate someone who is low or help them gain or regain confidence in themself.
Today, on the From the Touchline podcast, we continue in our Lessons From Lasso, as we dive into Season 1, Episode Three and look at how Coach Lasso elevates the team’s kit man (equipment) Nate into considering his idea for a potential play that might help the team. Nate lacks the confidence despite that his soccer knowledge far outweighs Coach Lasso’s. AS we consider Lasso and Nate’s exchange, we consider, too, how Jesus elevate the young men around him (his disciples).
Ted Lasso, the immensely popular streaming TV show in its second season on Apple TV+ features the antics and quirky, ‘Ted Lasso’ character brought to life in his own TV show series. Lasso first appeared a number of years ago as a comedic character as NBC purchased the broadcast rights to the English Premier League. Played by Jason Sudeikis, Lasso (as a coach) brings change to the difficult football (soccer) team that he has traveled overseas to coach.
In the ‘Lessons from Lasso’ series, Rev Brad looks at some of the different life learning points brought up in the show from a chaplain’s point of view.
From the Touchline is a short-feature (usually 10-15 min) podcast with Rev Brad Kenney, Founder and Executive Director of Soccer Chaplains United and Volunteer Chaplain to the Colorado Rapids of Major League Soccer.
Rev Brad and occasional guests touch on various issues around the topics of faith, family, and football (soccer).
