A Pastor and a CrossFit owner walk into a coffee shop. Pastor Tim Morey and CrossFit 310 owner Kris Germain share a love for CrossFit, training, leadership, and all things gospel.  They have been getting together for years over a cup of coffee, to wade deep into the conversational waters of the Bible and barbell, grace and conditioning, the heartbreaking love of the Father and our identities as his adopted children.  Listen in as they discuss the mysterious push and pull of Faith and Fitness, and how God may be speaking and teaching us personally from either direction.

    “How to Follow a Rabbi,” EP: 026

    How do we teach a person to overhead squat?  How do we teach a person to pray?  The two processes can often look very similar.  In this episode, Koach Kris and Pastor Tim sit down with Logan White, youth minister extraordinaire to talk about discipleship – how we come alongside another person to help them grow in their faith, or in their fitness.

    “Becoming Who We Are,” EP: 024

    A newbie wanders into your CrossFit gym, watches for a while, decides they want the life they see, and signs up.  Are they now a CrossFitter?  Yes.  Are they any fitter?  Not yet.  But as they move forward, over time they will be.  Their outer reality will match the identity that is now theirs.  It happens the same way in the spiritual life.  Today Kris and Tim approach the contours of growth – what it is, how it happens, and the process of becoming who we now are.

    “Community is the Secret Sauce,” EP: 022

    “When Our Bodies or Workouts Become an Idol,” EP: 021

    Is there a point at which good care of our bodies crosses over and becomes a bad thing?  Ragamuffin Barbell says “yes.”  In this episode, Tim Morey and Kris Germain speak of their own understanding and experience of the idolatry that can pop up around body image, athletic performance, and being enslaved to our workouts.

    "Understanding Recovery," EP: 020

    It is one of those counterintuitive truths in training: rest is essential to growth.  In other words, if you work out too much and don’t take time to recover, your body will actually get weaker, not stronger.  The same is true of the other dimensions of our lives – without adequate time given to rest and recovery, the quality of our spiritual lives are diminished.  On this episode, Kris and Tim talk about recovery both" in and out of the gym.

    “Learning How to Trust,” EP: 019

    Dave Pabalate wears a couple of different hats.  He is the owner of CrossFit Loomis, and the Worship Pastor at Rock Harbor Covenant Church.  Turns out those two worlds overlap a lot – in ways that are bringing both spiritual and physical health to Sacramento.  In this episode Dave sits down with Kris and Tim to talk about what happens when life in the box and life in the church intersect, and how he is learning to trust God in the midst of life’s ups and downs.
