What does it take for a champion dad to build a champion son? For Nate Carr, winning was something he learned after growing up in a family of 13 kids. He had the foundation he needed to appreciate healthy competition while having his wins rooted in faith.
When it was time for him to build his own family, he knew that he needed to coach his son not just in the pursuit of athletic excellence, but also in the pursuit of a faithful life. Under his guidance, David thrived in different areas of life while marking his own path.
Today, Nate is working together with his son to shape him to be the best adult and athlete that he can be. In this episode, Nate and David talk about their relationship as father and son and how they work together in faith to become the champions Christ has meant for them to be.
"It’s easy to say you want to be the best in the business. It’s easy to say you want to be a national champion. But then when you have to go through the growing pains, not a lot of people want to go through it.” - David Carr

This salvation, which was first announced by the Lord, was confirmed to us by those who heard him.
