·11 min·1 clip

Brian Smith shares the exact words he told his son after a humiliating wrestling loss: 'If you can handle that in front of 600 classmates, you can do anything.'

Co-authors Brian Smith and Ed Uszynski discuss their book 'Guardrails,' focusing on how Christian parents can use youth sports as a discipleship tool to build character rather than just athletic performance. They share personal stories, including a vulnerable account of a son's humiliating wrestling match, and provide practical questions to shift post-game conversations from results to relationships and spiritual growth.
