Play Like a Father - Fathers Day Message

Happy Father’s Day!
Whether you’ve had a great dad, lost your dad, or never had the best experience of fatherhood—this message is still for you.

This week, Pastor Stephen shares a powerful and inspiring word for every man—whether you’re a dad, mentor, leader, or spiritual father. Using football as a backdrop, this sermon unpacks the truth that playing well in the game of life requires training, intentionality, and heart.

💬 With humour, practical teaching, and real-life examples, you'll discover:
⚽ What it means to “play like a father”
🛡 How to suit up with the armour of God
📖 Why knowing God’s Word is essential to lead well
👨‍👧‍👦 How to lead your home with strength and grace
💪 How to persevere through life’s hits
🎉 And why celebrating the small wins matters!

This is a call for men to rise up, lead well, and love deeply — not just on Father’s Day but every day.

👥 It’s not just a message — it’s a challenge to step onto your pitch and play your best game for Jesus.
