Customer Reviews
Podcast that just fits me
The We Tackle Life podcast is full of wisdom when it comes to sports and faith. Always enjoy Bruce’s take on the Browns and Buckeyes. May not agree with all his takes but enjoy listening to them. The faith portion is what I truly need and why I have been a faithful listener from the start. Just recently Bruce’s take on adversity hit me. It is not always easy to go through but often times it is what makes us grow in our faith. Hope these podcasts continue as they provide a great outlet for me. Thanks Bruce.
S.A.M.!
Our world needs more podcasts like We Tackle Life! Bruce Hooley has a heart for informing and helping others and does an outstanding job of discussing not only current sports events but, more importantly, matters of faith.
He has helped me focus more clearly on what is really important in this life as he speaks the truth with a loving heart. He is not afraid to stand and speak for truth which, in a world plagued with relativism, is most welcome and appreciated.
Bruce has a unique podcast. Hemisphere Coffee Roasters of Mechanicsburg, Ohio has B.A.M.; We Tackle Life has S.A.M.—Sports and Ministry! Give it a listen.
Buckeyes and Faith
Bruce does an excellent job speaking “his truth” on Buckeye athletics and unique faith portions each episode. Anytime something happens in the world of Buckeye sports, I instantly yearn for Bruce’s wisdom on the topic. His humble yet confident walk-through of a Christian faith portion is a grounding part of my day.
