Intriguing Angles and Down-to Earth Fun
I have really enjoyed listening to this podcast in its newest reiteration and revision — especially that Chad and Brian would have guests on the program not specifically from their own faith tradition (or any faith tradition) to give their experience and insights into the world of sport and how sport intersects faith and life. Give these two a listen!
Inspiring
Such a relief to find a professional, inspiring podcast on faith and sport. And maybe we can’t listen to podcasts all the time... I loved the blogs on the website that related to each podcast.
Thankful for this podcast!
Real-life, extremely applicable topics. Credible & experienced speakers joining forces. Really appreciated the wide lens looking at sports and faith, as well as closer looks into Scripture, language, and real-life examples. Very thankful this podcast and the 2nd Global Conference for Sports and Christianity exist!
