TYLER MCKINNIE

ASSISTANT COACH

Coach Tyler Mckinnie

When I came to Christ:

I was 19 when I gave my life to Christ

Favorite Bible verse:

Luke 10:19 "Behold, I give you the authority to trample on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy, and nothing shall by any means hurt you." This is my favorite Bible verse because it gives me security that no matter what comes my way not only is God with me, but he has given me the ability to overcome anything that comes against me.

Family:

I have a beautiful fiancé named Faith. I have a little sister named Camryn. My Mom and Dad are named Erica and Larry.

Why I love coaching:

I tore my ACL and got into training offensive linemen. Through this, I found the purpose I feel God has called me to. When I was growing up I was confused and didn't have much guidance or understanding of what it meant to be a young MAN. When I gave my life to Christ, I joined a small group and we read a book called "KINGDOM MAN". This book changed my life. It gave me the real purpose of what it means to be a Man in God's eyes. This brings me to my calling which is to help young athletes know who they are in Christ and not in the world or just football.
