Overcoming Obstacles In Facing The Giants

Overcoming Obstacles

Even though life can be hard at points, the clip from the movie Facing the Giants by Alex Kendrick shows how if you don’t give up you will eventually get around it. Brock, a football player on the team, had to do the Death Crawl to the 50 yard line because he doubted his team. The Death Crawl is when someone lays on your back and you have to crawl. To begin with, The coach told Brock to put on a blindfold so he could avoid distractions. “ I want you to do the Death Crawl blindfolded, Brock.” Brock couldn’t pay attention to the yard line he was at which helped him overcome the obstacle. ­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­Furthermore, The coach told Brock to keep going and not give up. The coach says “C’mon Brock, don’t quit

until you have nothing left.” Brock wanted to quit and stop but the coach convinced him to keep crawling even though he was in pain which helped him overcome the Death Crawl. ­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­Finally, after the coach kept telling Brock to keep going once Brock took the blindfold off he saw, that he ended up in the endzone. “ Look up Brock, look where you are, you are in the endzone.” Brock kept going because the coach was encouraging him to keep going so he could overcome the Death Crawl. Even though, there will be some difficult obstacles in your way in life, do not give up and you will eventually get around them.
