It's easy for elite athletes to fall into the trap of attaching their self-worth to their performance and continually seeking affirmation from people.
Former pro footballer Jonathan Armogam experienced this entrapment in his career and chose the path of alcohol and substance abuse, when the drug of public affirmation ran out.
In this podcast Bruce, at the 2016 One Life Conference, speaks to him about the turning point in his life and career when he received Christ as his personal Lord and Saviour - the source of his true identity and fulfillment.
Bruce also shares Chaplaincy golden nuggets like the 4 “Ds” typically experienced by many elite athletes and the 3 areas where many athletes get their identities incorrectly from. He shares the Sports Chaplaincy South Africa dream of having chaplains caring for and mentoring sports communities in South Africa, experiencing these challenges.
Watch out for Part 2 with Jonathan and Bruce where they have a rich and insightful conversation exploring the question, "Where's the money gone? Why do so many sports people experience money problems, and what can be done about it?"
