Barry Brown: The Volunteer Coach Running For Jesus
By Terrie Ellington
Let each of you esteem and look upon and be concerned for not merely his own
interests, but also each for the interests of others. Philippians 2:4 AMP
In obedience to the Great Head of the Church, Barry Brown lives by this scripture, as
he gives of his time and energy as a volunteer coach for the Arkansas Baptist College
and AAU track teams. Meeting at least twice a week for practice and going on road
trips to attend track meets, Mr. Brown is kept quite busy serving these students.
What started out as lending a helping hand to his own childhood mentor, Charles
Ripley, has turned into a passion for helping and serving these youngsters by
building positive relationships and mentoring them in becoming responsible adults.
