Discipleship Through Sports With Aaron Faro (EP. 261)
Support our mission to change a culture, one man at a time – https://menofiron.org/donate
This week we continue our Faith in Sports Series with Messiah University Associate Head Soccer Aaron Faro. Aaron grew up in upstate New York with a strong faith foundation and a deep desire to see faith and sports run together. Aaron said that at a young age his identity was wrapped up in his athletic accomplishments.
"My athletics were not surrendered to God."
As an alum of Messiah University, he describes his years at Messiah as some of the most significant years of growth. As his love for Jesus deepened, he watched the Lord reorder his priorities and put faith above sports. It ultimately gave Aaron a deep desire for coaching and helping other athletes recognize this and learn to put Jesus above all else. As Aaron surrendered his life to the Lord, the Lord gave sports back to Aaron in the form of coaching.
Your college years are very foundational, and who you surround yourself with is huge. At Messiah University, Aaron wants it to be an environment where men grow, are sharpened, and ultimately grow closer to the Lord. They are constantly talking constantly about the value of relationships and that deep relationships is something we were created for. Being vulnerable, sharing one another's burdens, being real with one another and submitting to accountability. These our not very common practices in our culture, especially for men.
Sports is such a powerful tool for connecting with people. It lends itself so well to building deep relationships. When we surrender all things to the Lord he can use them. There is a huge need in our culture for men to be all of who God's created them to be. When men aren't all that God's created them to be there is a huge gap and a huge ripple in every sector of our culture.
"When I think of my legacy, I think of the life of Jesus and the way that he poured into people. I want my legacy to be that I helped people move closer to Jesus. The coach in me desires to see them reach their potential and use that to impact others."
