Every successful team plays with clear benchmarks for what “winning” looks like. In your walk with Christ, do you know what those benchmarks are? In Chapter 11 of *Are You Coachable?*, we are reminded that God is not vague about the expectations for His followers. Scripture reveals the standards through the life of Christ, the teachings of the apostles, and the model of the early Church.
Benchmarks in football include stats, goals, and tape review. But in the Kingdom, the measurements are maturity, fruit, and obedience. A winning life is one marked by Spirit-led growth and reproducing faith in others. If you’re coachable, you’re paying attention to the benchmarks God already gave you.
