High school football coach Joe Kennedy was always a fighter. A childhood in foster care followed by 20 years in the Marines was nothing compared to his biggest battle: his commitment to stand for God by taking a knee in prayer after each game. When he was fired, Joe knew this battle for religious freedom and the rights of all Americans was one they would have to fight—no matter the cost. Based on the movie AVERAGE JOE, this Plan reminds us that the battle is not physical but spiritual, and our greatest weapon is our faith in God.
