"WINNING CHARACTER,

A Proven Game Plan for Success"

Based on the book by Coach Tommy Bowden

 

 

"Winning Character" a men's life-study program based on the book by Clemson University football coach Tommy Bowden gives men a game plan for understanding winning character traits based on a "God-defined" vision of authentic manhood.

 

We will examine the traits that define a winning character:

 

Commitment, Accountability, Responsibility, Discipline, and Sacrifice

 

"We must dig deeper each day into the applied wisdom of His Word. And we must ask for His help in making the best decisions we can make, every time we're faced with another one.

 

That's why the daily, determined pursuit of a "Winning Character" is so important!"

 

Men, It's Time to Get in the Game!

Join us Thursday nights at 7:00 pm

(In the KCC Fellowship Center)
