Warrior Week

This week’s episode is one you do not want to miss: The story of the soldier known as Isaiah Melendez. In the midst of Warrior Week 53, Coach Sam welcomes Isaiah aka Coach Mercenary to the show where they have a conversation about war, about honoring the innocent children who have fought and died in war, and how within each one of us is an innocent child. They launch their new project, CHILD OF WAR and describe its inception and purpose. ___________________________________________________________________________________ Parable #1: Military Life After eight years of military service where he experienced constant structure and discipline, Isaiah emerged into civilian life and realized he had lost his identity.
