Equally Yoked: Finding your perfect partner in God's Will
Relationships are an integral part of life, especially the relationship we have with God the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. It is the most important! We are to love others as our Father loves us. Most importantly, relationally we are to be equally yoked, and of one accord. I am guilty of not being equally yoked in all of my relationships. I know better now. We must strive to harness and commit to our loved one with the Fruits of the Spirit; love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, gentleness, faithfulness, and self-control. This is Bible. Scripture says, “Do not be yoked together with unbelievers. For what do righteousness and wickedness have in common? Or what fellowship can light have with darkness?”-2 Corinthians 6:14 NIV I am Billy Yancey. God is THE GOAT!

Encouragement: A Gift from God
Over the last 55 years, I have had some ups and downs. Fortunately, although, at times, the valleys seemed insurmountable, I made it out. I’ve had more ups than downs, thank God! My mom, my go to, always there to encourage me, and help me right the ship when I went off course. “Look back! Look back from whence you came. You have always made it through. You have always persevered”, she’d remind me. Praise God for my momma and encouragement. We all need encouragement along the way. All of us! Help our brothers and sisters. We are all God’s children. “Therefore encourage one another and build each other up, just as in fact you are doing.”-1 Thessalonians 5:11 NIV I am Billy Yancey. God is THE GOAT!

After spending 18.5 years of the first half of his life behind bars, God made a way out!
My guest is Jason Janow! He is from Spring City, TN. He’s had a lot of stuff happen in his life. At the age of 10 he started as a laborer working for his uncle who shed a lot of positivity into his life, but unfortunately Jason was not open to any of that at the time. Consequently, at the age of 15 he ended up getting kicked out of high school for fighting. He was a little fella, and did not take kindly to being picked on….so he fought A LOT!
He loves fishing and hunting, but he ended up spending more time with his other hobbies….drugs, sex, and alcohol. His wild and crazy lifestyle first put him jail until he escaped, and finally ended up in and out prison for 18.5 years of his 47 year old life. “It’s been hard”, says Jason, but “I determined”. At age 45 Jason finally gave his life to the Lord and has not looked back. Praise God! I am Billy Yancey. God is THE GOAT!

This Heartwarming Steph Curry Story Will Restore Your Hope!
My guest and I have known each other for many years, actually his whole life. Almost 17 years now. His name is William M Yancey Jr. Yes, my son William. Mini-me! William was born on September 11, 2006. He was 1LB-14oz. Yes, he was a preemie! William fit in the palm of my hand. My wedding band fit like a hula hoop around his leg. We were encouraged by the medical staff to let him go. The doctor said, “65% of these cases fail.” That’s when my dad, Reverend Clyde jumped up and said, “we believe in a Higher Being! We will go with the 35%!” And I said, “if William is in there fighting, then we’re out here fighting with him!” Our community and beyond prayed for William. Pollard’s Chicken, the restaurant next to my business, put it up on their sign that stands 25 feet in the air. It read, “PRAY FOR BABY WILLIAM!” People all over the world were praying for Baby William. William was in the NICU for 92 days. Some days seemed longer that others. But, praise God, he came home with mommy and daddy. Yes, William is a miracle. But, we’re not here to talk about his birthday and all of his battles along the way. Today, we thank God and we rejoice about one of William’s favorite days on earth….the day he got to meet his hero, Stephen Curry! I am Billy Yancey. God is THE GOAT!

Announcing Neil Stratton creator of Inside The League: "Put God first! You gotta give yourself away."
Our guest today is a good friend of mine. We attended the Naval Academy together. His name is Neil Stratton. We played football together, BRIEFLY! In his words, “He was a walk-on outside linebacker. During this time, Stratton earned the distinction of being perhaps the worst player on the worst team in America during the late 80s.”
After service, Neil helped start a small draft-oriented publication called Lone Star Football (LSF) with his business partner in 1997, but dissolved in 2000. There were brighter days ahead. In 2002 he launched his current company, Inside the League (ITL). Through hard work and perseverance, Inside the League grew. So much so, that in 2008 Stratton was hired to run the 2008 Hula Bowl, which turned out to be the final performance of a venerated game that once featured names like Dan Marino, Joe Montana and Tony Dorsett. In order to fully put his focus on his duties as Executive Director of the game, Stratton shuttered the ITL site in Fall 2007. BUT, his love and passion for what he created was still eating away at him. Eager to continue his work, he retooled ITL in Fall 2008. This time, the service would publish several times weekly with a 12-month news cycle. ITL clients responded, and slowly, the service grew.
Since then, ITL has added several other popular features and services, which include; seasonal newsletters, a free weekly email called ‘Friday Wrap’, a thriving ITL Twitter account, his daily blog, Succeed in Football (http://succeedinfootball.com/), the ITL YouTube channel, (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCZmefTpF4mOSKdWT0y-KnAw) along with his book, Moving the Chains, a guide to the NFL draft for parents with sons considering a career in pro football. Wherever you are in the football world, and whatever your budget, ITL has the tools that can help you succeed. They will work with you and help you make your dreams come true.
Neil’s faith to God, along with his grind and commitment to serving people changed his trajectory. He encourages us to all to put God first, take a different path(don’t get lost in the crowd), surround yourself with people invested in you, and to be genuine! He quotes scripture, Numbers 14:7-9 NIV, “and said to the entire Israelite assembly, “The land we passed through and explored is exceedingly good. If the Lord is pleased with us, he will lead us into that land, a land flowing with milk and honey, and will give it to us. Only do not rebel against the Lord. And do not be afraid of the people of the land, because we will devour them. Their protection is gone, but the Lord is with us. Do not be afraid of them.” This is great wisdom to live by. I am Billy Yancey. God is THE GOAT!
