Facing The Giants Page #4

one of the tools we use to honor God.

So you think God

does care about football?

I think he cares about your faith.

He cares about where your heart is.

If you can live your faith on the football field,

then, yes, God cares

'cause he cares about you.

He sent his son Jesus to die for us

so we could live for him.

That's why we're here.

But, see,

it's not just on the football field.

We've gotta honor him

in our relationships,

in our respect for authority,

in the classroom,

and when you're at home alone

surfing the internet.

I want God to bless this team so much,

people talk about what he did.

But it means we gotta give him our best

in every area.

And if we win, we praise him.

And if we lose, we praise him.

Either way, we honor him

with our actions and our attitudes.

So I'm asking you,

what are you living for?

I've resolved to give God

everything I've got,

then I'll leave the results up to him.

I wanna know if you'll join me.

Your attitude's like the aroma

of your heart.

If your attitude stinks,

it means your heart's not right.

He sure is preachy today.

What?

- How's your attitude, Brock?

- It's fine.

Then you'll be OK

with the death crawl, right?

All right, everybody on the goal line.

Get your partner. Let's go.

All right, let's go. Show me something.

Matt, let's go. Let's go, Jonathan.

Show me something. 10 yards.

Show me some power. No knees.

Keep your knees off the ground.

Show me something. Here we go.

Show me some power.

Give me some heart. Let's go.

Very good, boys. Very good.

Let's run it back.

- Man, that's not even funny, dude.

- Yeah, it is.

So, Coach,

how strong is Westview this year?

A lot stronger than we are.

You already written Friday night down

as a loss, Brock?

Well, not if I knew we could beat 'em.

Come here, Brock. You too, Jeremy.

- What? Am I in trouble now?

- Not yet.

I wanna see you do the death crawl again

except I wanna see your absolute best.

What? You want me to go the 30?

- I think you can go the 50.

- The 50?

I can go the 50 if nobody's on my back.

You can do it with Jeremy on your back,

but promise you're gonna do your best.

- All right.

- Your best.

- OK.

- You're gonna give me your best?

- I'm gonna give you my best.

- All right, one more thing.

- I want you to do it blindfolded.

- Why?

I don't want you giving up at a certain

point when you can go further. Get down.

Jeremy, get on his back.

Now, get a good tight hold, Jeremy.

All right. Let's go, Brock.

Keep your knees off the ground.

Just your hands and feet.

A little bit left. A little bit left.

There you go. Show me good effort.

Thataway, Brock. You keep coming.

- There you go.

- Come on, Brock.

- Come on.

- It's a good start. Little bit left.

Little bit left. There you go, Brock.

Good strength.

You gotta be kidding me.

- That's it, Brock. That's it.

- Am I at the 20 yet?

Forget the 20. You give me your best.

You keep going. That's it.

Don't stop.

You got more in you than that.

I ain't done. I'm resting a second.

You gotta keep moving. Let's go.

Don't quit till you got nothing left.

There you go. Keep moving. Keep moving.

Keep moving.

That's it. You keep driving.

Keep your knees off the ground.

Keep driving it. Your very best.

Your very best. Keep moving, Brock.

That's it. That's it. That's it.

Keep going.

Don't quit on me. Keep going.

Keep driving it. Keep your knees

off the ground. That's it.

Your very best.

Don't quit on me. Your very best.

Keep driving. Keep driving.

There you go. There you go.

That's it. You keep driving.

Keep your knees off the ground.

Don't quit till you got nothing left.

Keep moving, Brock.

That's it. That's it. That's it.

Keep going. I want everything you got.

Come on, keep going.

- It hurts.

- Don't quit on me. Your very best.

Keep driving. Keep driving.

There you go. There you go.

- He's heavy.

- I know.

- I'm about out of strength.

- Then find more strength.

Don't you give up on me, Brock.

You keep going, you hear me?

You're doing good. You keep going.

Do not quit on me. You keep going.

- It hurts.

- I know it hurts. You keep going.

It's all heart from here. 30 more steps.

You keep going, Brock. Come on.

- Keep going.

- It burns.

- Let it burn.

- My arms are burning.

It's all heart.

You keep going, Brock. Come on.

Come on. Keep going.

You promised me your best. Your best.

- Don't stop. Keep going.

- It's too hard.

It's not too hard.

You keep going. Come on, Brock.

Give me more. Give me more. Keep going.

Keep going, Brock.

Give me your best. Don't quit.

No. Keep going. Keep going.

Keep going. Don't quit. Don't quit.

Don't quit.

Brock Kelley, you don't quit.

Keep going. Keep going.

Go, Brock Kelley. You don't quit on me.

No, you keep going.

You keep going. Go, Brock.

Keep going. Don't quit.

Give me your heart.

- I can't do it.

- You can. You can.

Five more. Five more.

Come on, Brock. Come on.

Don't quit. Don't quit.

Come on. Two more. One more.

That's gotta be 50. That's gotta be 50.

I don't have any more.

Look up, Brock. You're in the end zone.

Brock, you are the most

influential player on this team.

If you walk around defeated, so will they.

Tell me you can't give me more

than what I've been seeing.

You just carried a 140-pound man

across this whole field on your arms.

Brock, I need you.

God's gifted you with the ability

of leadership. Don't waste it.

- Coach.

- Can I count on you?

Yes.

Coach.

- What is it, Jeremy?

- I weigh 160.

All right. Who's next?

Good practice, boys.

See you all tomorrow.

Hey, man, for the first time in a while,

I actually feel good about Friday night.

- Yeah? Why?

- I'm just on board with what you're doing.

If they get ahold of it,

it'll change their lives.

You count me in.

Grant, me too.

- Yeah?

- Yeah.

I feel like I owe you an apology.

I just want you to know

that I'm with you.

- Thank you.

- See you tomorrow.

- You need a ride, Matt?

- No, my dad's coming.

Or at least, he'd better be.

Can I shoot straight with you

for a minute?

- Sure.

- I feel like you owe your dad more respect.

- Why?

- 'Cause he's your father.

- You don't know him like I know him.

- I don't have to.

You need to respect him

because it's the right thing.

You know, Coach,

my dad doesn't even like you.

He thinks the school

needs to find somebody else.

That's beside the point.

Scripture says to honor your parents.

- And all you do is complain.

- All he does is boss me around.

He doesn't even try to understand me.

You can't judge your father by his

actions and yourself by your intentions.

It doesn't work that way.

You're not responsible for him.

You're responsible for you. You honor

God by honoring your authority.

You really believe in all that honoring

God and follow Jesus stuff?

Yes, I do.

Well, I ain't trying to be disrespectful,

but not everybody believes in that.

Religion works for some people, but I'm

just here 'cause I got kicked out of Westview.
