41-year-old bobsledder Elana Meyers Taylor just became the oldest Olympic gold medalist in history. But her greatest title isn’t “Olympian.” It’s being a mother of two precious deaf children — one with Down syndrome — and being openly Christian, placing God above every medal. “God put me here for a specific reason, and I don’t think it’s just to win medals. At the end of the day, I’m in this sport to glorify God, so if that means I come in last place, or I win the gold medal, that’s what I’m going to do.”
