Taylor Kemp's drive to be successful at soccer led him to some incredible achievements, including over 100 games as a defender for D.C. United.

He shares how his passion for success in his sport helped him realize that he couldn't enjoy soccer properly if it was the most important thing in his life; it had taken on the role of a religion for him, and was occupying a space that was meant to be held by God alone.
