🏀 Sport: Girls Basketball

🎓 Alma Mater: South Dakota State University

When asked why she’s committed to camp, Coach Paula shared:

"There’s something powerful about the way this camp brings together faith, sport, nature, family, and friends. You compete hard, grow spiritually, build lasting relationships, and experience God’s presence in a unique way surrounded by the beauty of the Black Hills. It feels like everything that matters most is brought into one place. FCA Black Hills Sports Camp isn’t just an event I attend - it’s a place that challenges me, shapes me, and reminds me who I am in Christ."

This is what Coaches Committed is all about - leaders who are investing in more than the game. 🙌

This was such an awesome conversation to have with Jeff Martin! Listen in to hear about his heart for the Lord and how God used the book of 2 Chronicles to inspire Jeff to start Fields of Faith - one of the most recognizable ministry events for young people around the country!

What started as one man’s quiet time on a back porch turned into a nationwide movement.

In Episode 10 of Stories of His Glory, Jeff Martin, Chief Strategic Officer for FCA and founder of Fields of Faith, shares how God used a passage from 2 Chronicles, a student’s courage, and the unity of local churches to launch a ministry that’s now transforming communities across the world.

Whether it's in a gym or a stadium, Jeff’s story reminds us: when God’s people unite to share the impact Jesus has had on their life, ripples become waves. 🌊

Episode 4 Stories of His Glory Podcast is now live! What a powerful story of how God revealed himself to Ev & Teri and the impact that they've had since surrendering to Christ!

Ev was a coach that pushed his athletes to get results for both the team and themselves. Teri owned a flower shop and supported her husband as he coached.

After surrendering their lives to Jesus in 2004, God gave them a new mission: to be transformational influences with their lives. That eventually led them both to leading the ministry of FCA on the campus of UND.

Listen to their story of marriage, the radical grace of Jesus Christ, and legacy in Episode 4.
