How God Truly Changes You with Verrado High School Basketball Coach and FCA Arizona Rep Dra Rogers

Competing for Christ Podcast

"Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old has passed away; behold, the new has come." - 2 Corinthians 5:17. When you invite God into your life, He will change how you speak, how you act, how you play sports, and how you live. How have you seen that happen in your life? Have you experienced that change?

For Dra Rogers, he can say that God has completely changed how he lives and how he coaches the game of basketball. Dra is the head basketball coach at Verrado High School in Arizona and also works with FCA Arizona West Valley. As someone that has coached both as a Christian and as someone who was not, he understands what it means to have Christ truly change the person that you are.

Today, we sit down with Dra to discuss:

• How sports shaped Dra before coming to know Christ
• The biggest difference in how he coaches now vs. when he wasn't a believer
• A crazy story of him starting his work with FCA
• How to connect with athletes today through Jesus
• The balance of exercising free will vs. letting God be in control
