Episode 103 - Generosity at the Heart Supporting FCA’s Mission in Cherokee County

In this inspiring episode, host Tim Goodwin sits down with longtime friend and local leader Steve Hyland, Director of the Fellowship of Christian Athletes (FCA) for Cherokee County, Georgia. After a 28-year career in marketing at Coca-Cola and five years producing a Christian film, Steve came out of retirement in the middle of the pandemic to answer a new calling—one that started on April Fool’s Day, 2020.

Now leading a thriving FCA chapter, Steve shares how God used his background in corporate leadership to grow a grassroots ministry from just two full-time team members to twelve staffers reaching thousands of young athletes and coaches through schools, community sports, and leadership development. With a mission rooted in character coaching, presence, and personal investment, Steve and his team are seeing a local revival unfold—through Bible studies in Chick-fil-A dining rooms, sports camps with life-changing spiritual impact, and high school students stepping up to disciple the next generation.

More than a conversation about sports, this episode highlights the power of presence, the ripple effects of generosity, and how ordinary people with willing hearts and open hands can make an extraordinary impact. Tim and Steve also unpack how Goodwin Investment Advisory’s commitment to giving back is helping support FCA’s mission—and how listeners can be part of it too.

"Everything we have is God's—so we're just stewards. And when your hands stay open to give, God keeps filling them."
"We're not just building a program. We're building a foundation for your kids and grandkids to encounter Jesus through sport."
