## Resource

Rewind four years. Zach Duke looks in the mirror and does not like the man staring back. He is out of shape. He is chronically sick. He is a dad running on empty. So he prays a dangerous prayer. He asks God not to let him move from his chair until the fire comes back. What God says next makes no sense. Play soccer. Zach has never played. He posts his training every day to nobody. Then the internet finds him.Videos with tens of millions of views later, Zach earns a spot on a Team USA World Cup 6x6 roster at an age when most players retire. But this is not a sports story. It is the story of a missionary who has walked through 45 countries, survived a demonic attack, and learned that Jesus wants to be on the field with him. Nate and Luke sit down with the man known as World Cup Dad to talk transformation, the fear of man, and the God who uses the weak things to shame the strong.
