I’ve spent my life around competition, discipline, and high-performance environments, all the way to the NFL. But the most powerful framework for winning at life didn’t come from a locker room. It came from watching how Jesus lived.

As we pattern our lives after him, we become who God called us to be, and we can then help others learn to live as his disciples.

what people are saying

“Chip Pugh’s Made to Win is a powerful guide to walking out faith with purpose. Early in my Christian journey, Chip discipled me with wisdom, grace, and grit—shaping my heart more than any CrossFit victory ever could. His book captures the essence of authentic mentorship, urging us to follow Jesus and lead others with love. I’m forever grateful for Chip’s impact, and I know this book will inspire countless others.”

Rich Froning, Crossfit champion

“There are many books about winning and many about drawing victory from the teachings of Jesus. This book, though, is written by an NFL team chaplain who works to build champions every day. There’s nothing else like it. Chip Pugh knows his God, his Bible, and his craft. Get this book, devour it, and win.”

Stephen Mansfield, New York Times bestselling author; ambassador, Center for Christian Statesmanship

“Made to Win teaches you the mindset of a disciple maker, illustrated through six battle tested practices to give you clear purpose, crush distractions, and enable you to win at leading others to Jesus. It is an inspiring playbook—grab it and join the greatest mission on planet Earth.”

dr. Bobby Harrington, CEO Discipleship.org

"Chip's faith, integrity, and steady leadership have had a lasting impact on my life both on and off the field. Made to Win reflects exactly who he is and what he’s always taught—how to win at life with purpose, humility, and faith. The wisdom in these pages isn’t just written; it’s lived. I trust his words because I’ve seen them in action, and I believe this book will inspire and challenge anyone who reads it.”

Tre Lamb, head football coach, the University of Tulsa

“If you are like me, you’ve read hundreds of books by Hall of Fame coaches and athletes detailing their formulas for success. Chip has written a book that deep dives into what Jesus—the one true Champion who defeated death and sin—has to say about what it is to truly win.”

Josh Everett, strength and conditioning coach,U.S. Department of Defense

“For anyone desiring a deeper connection with the love of God and the purpose he has for your life, Made to Win is an essential resource. Chip shares his hard-earned wisdom, not simply through information but also through transformational practices he has lived—all of which come directly from the life of Jesus. In this book, Chip shares the path to the ultimate win—knowing God, loving God, and living your purpose within the mission of God. You were made to win, and this book will train you how!”

Anthony rex, executive director, church for the campus

Most people never experience the joy of winning—because they were never trained to win.

You can be motivated, disciplined, and still feel stuck. Not because you lack effort… but because you lack a plan and a coach.
