Hello,
 
There is an old saying: “champions don't become champions in the ring—they are merely recognized there.” If you want to see where someone develops into a champion, look at his daily routine, not at his performance on game day. That is why discipline is such a huge part of our training here at ALERT. Our goal is to help our men establish good daily routines of Bible reading, memorization, physical training and professional development. As the Apostle Paul says, “Every athlete exercises self-control in all things. They do it to receive a perishable wreath, but we an imperishable. So I do not run aimlessly; I do not box as one beating the air. But I discipline my body and keep it under control, lest after preaching to others I myself should be disqualified” 1 Corinthians 9:25-27 ESV. May that be said of us.
 
Striving for Christ,
Sergeant Major Matthew Moody
ALERT Battalion Sergeant Major
