Me and my son... I am very proud. People told me” Coach you are living the American dream, coaching your son and playing in the State Championship “. This is very true! What people don’t know... There were men praying for my son for Months!!! Thank you men’s encounter!!😊
I am so grateful to be able to watch my son Nate Swofford play in his spring game... and very proud that he was voted team captain by his team mates at Evangel University.
Celebrating at our football banquet. A year I will always cherish. The lady on the right keeps us going. Erin Swofford is our rock... Merry Christmas from the Swofford family 😊
Was honored to be able to baptize my wife this morning. She has been saved for many years... but she told the congregation it was important to be obedient to Jesus’s teaching. I love my beautiful bride.
A lot of tears ,stories , and memories where shared. But the most important message these dads, brothers, and grandparents shared was they loved them. I had the great honor of presenting my sons jersey to him ,I cried a lot 😊 GO BEARS GO!
Introducing Dr. Erin Swofford!!!
Erin completed her dissertation today and completed a dream she has had for years. She has been a mother, a coaches wife, and a blessing to so many children as a principal. And a POWERFUL woman of God. I couldn’t be more proud.
Proud parents tweet. We are proud of our son Nate, 2nd year in a row of being the strongest pound for pound player at Evangel University and 3rd year of being named captain by his teammates. Proud of the man he is becoming.
This guy wanted in on the 185 max Rep competition 😊😊 He did awesome!!
Dr Jason Dial, congratulations on an awesome career in education. This guy has always been a tremendous supporter of the Ava Bears. He is a Superintendent that gets it...for you coaches out there, you know👍
I had the great honor of Baptizing this Evangel Valor tonight. Seth Cathey decided to dedicate his life to Christ. Valor Strong!!! It was a great weekend with these players… I am truly blessed.
This is our team chaplain Chance Dry delivering a powerful message going into the state championship. This morning he delivered a powerful Easter sunrise service message on knowing Jesus. Great job Chance!!
My brother gave me a book when I started coaching. It was about the man in this picture. He said “coaching is a calling “ . I told my self right then “ I wanted to coach like Bobby Bowden” I followed him in everything he did. It was a good foundation for me. Thank you sir and RIP
My first group of senior Defensive linemen…. They were AWSOME to work with. Outstanding young men who will go out in the world and be GREAT! I love these guys. Valor Strong.
I love mid season PR’s !!!! 250lbs on the hang clean. Great job Nate Swofford. Being a late bloomer doesn’t slow this guy down. He is just getting started. Are you looking for a flexbone Qb... he is pretty good.

We must be connected first with God the Father as a Coach when dealing with our players. Because without that connection first, we are only a coach….BE SIGNIFICANT
We are getting ready to get our praise and worship on… In Rogers Arkansas watching Maverick City. Our time in transition is getting ready to happen so we want to spend some special time together worshiping our Heavenly Father thanking him for the many blessings we have.🙌
As I say every year,it’s the best thing I do as a coach. Father/son jersey presentation 2021-2022. Lots of laughs, tears, but most of all great memories!!!
GO BEARS GO!!!
Mountain Home Bombers are getting HOT…. The new weight room looks great!! I enjoyed watching the Bombers scrimmage and looking for future Valor football players. There is a great feel for football in North Arkansas..
A Big Thank You to Bob and Dani Helm for hosting the Evangel Valor Football Defensive Line last night. Great food, and a lot of laughs. Grandma Willie even brought some of her cookies ❤️😊
Happy Father’s Day to this guy. He valued education, and always encouraged his kids to go after there dreams, and had a unmatched loyalty for his family . Love you Dad
JOURNEY 2023! I love doing life with my bride.❤️ We got here early and was one of the first in the arena. My daughter said everyone else was probably taking there nap so they could stay up that late to listen to the concert.😂😂😂

Just a few pictures of our first Senior Sunday. Our topic today was leadership of seniors and leaving a legacy. Awesome group of young warriors.

We should also note a subtle difference between believing that and believing in. We can believe that God exists, but trusting in Christ is the key— that relationship radically alters how we live.

Fathers present jerseys to their son with tears in their eyes... Players will never forget this moment the rest of their life.
