Cecil Taylor shares his journey from small-town Texas pastor's kid to international businessman and broadcaster, weaving together lessons from football, faith, broadcasting, and parenting to help listeners live authentically in every area of life.
• Growing up in small Texas towns where football dominated community life
• Learning mental toughness and discipline from being "the smallest guy on the team"
• Building a broadcasting career from local football play-by-play to national sports networks
• Pioneering women's sports coverage through "The Women's Sports Hour" in the 1990s
• Developing the concept of "seven-day practical faith" to counter compartmentalized Christianity
• Addressing disillusionment with church by acknowledging imperfection while encouraging perseverance
• Creating the "unison parenting" approach to help parents present consistent messages to children
• Sharing colorful life experiences including singing for President Johnson and winning a hip-hop competition
• Encouraging content creators with the reminder that "your message is needed by someone"
Check out Cecil's Practical Faith Academy podcast and his book "Unison Parenting" to learn more about living authentically in faith and parenting.
