From March Madness to Middle School Ministry | Luke Moormann | Ep. 013

In this episode, Ryne and Evan sit down with Luke Moormann, former North Dakota Mr. Basketball, NDSU standout, March Madness participant, longtime coach, teacher, and FCA huddle leader.

Luke shares the behind-the-scenes stories from his high school and college basketball journey, including the growing pains of redshirting, beating nationally ranked teams, and what it was like to face Kansas in the NCAA Tournament.

In This Episode:

1. How work ethic and “the little things” create culture
2. Why championship teams depend on role players
3. How his faith came alive through Chi Alpha
4. The power of community and lifelong teammates
5. The growth of the FCA huddle at Simle Middle School
6. Encouragement and practical advice for new FCA huddle leaders
