FCA Huddle Podcast
FCA - Huddle Podcast is a faith based ministry podcast where we want to bring sports and faith together. Since 1954, the Fellowship of Christian Athletes has been challenging coaches and athletes on the professional, college, high school, and junior high levels to use the powerful platform of sport to reach every coach and athlete with the transforming power of Jesus Christ. FCA focuses on serving local communities around the globe by engaging, equipping, and empowering coaches and athletes to unite, inspire, and change the world through the Gospel.
With this podcast, we will get an inside look into our area coaches, as we talk about their journey that has led them to where they are now, and see how God is using them with this platform in coaching.

FCA Huddle Podcast with retired Coach Jim Manning (Pine Tree Jr High)
Today's guest is retired coach Jim Manning. Coach Manning retired in May of 2023 after 43 years of coaching. His last coaching job was in Pine Tree where he coached 15 years. He has been a faithful huddle leader of FCA since 1984. During these years, Coach Manning has poured into the hearts of his players and planted many seeds with the Gospel. I hope you enjoy our conversation as we talk about his growing up in New Jersey and how he came to Texas to coach. He shares a powerful testimony how God rescued him from a life of alcoholism. Together, Let's Makes a Difference!!!
