From FCA to Global Impact: Dan Britton’s Leadership Insights
“Punch awkward in the face.”
Dan Britton, president of Sports Life Leadership, joins the show to talk about Christ-centered leadership in sports and the personal transition that led him to start a new ministry after retiring from Fellowship of Christian Athletes (FCA) following 34 years of service. Britton shares his long-standing two-hour morning discipline block—Scripture, prayer, journaling, reading, and exercise—and how a recent coach helped him keep the disciplines while approaching them with more freedom, flexibility, space, and grace, including running without a phone or audio to practice silence with the Lord.
Britton recounts his upbringing as the youngest of three brothers in a disciplined, faith-filled home, his lacrosse background (including playing at the University of Delaware and professional lacrosse), and multiple moments where others spoke encouragement and “prophetic” direction over his life, including a memorable encounter at a Cracker Barrel that he believes may have involved an angel.
