Title IX Legislation Change?

Championship Team: A Message on Relationships

Why are relationships so difficult? Whether you're single, dating, engaged, or even married - I think at some point, we have all had questions of what it looks like to pursue a relationship, with God at the center.  I sat down with my wife, Grace, and special guest and friend, Andy Archer, to talk through some of the real questions and challenges that we were faced with during all stages of our relationship - as well as what God taught us throughout each stage. While we know we don't have all the answers, we felt led to address some of the real questions that our generation has surrounding relationships.  Grace and I start from the beginning and talk through the evaluation and pursuit stages of our relationship and all the way through engagement and into marriage. Like everything else in our lives, when we invite the Lord in, we allow him to work in incredible ways.   Special thanks to Andy for facilitating the discussion! Tune in next week to hear my powerful conversation with him!

Big League Faith

Kerry Carpenter led all of minor league baseball in homeruns in 2022, ultimately getting the call up to the Detroit Tigers, making his major league debut after the all-star break. He quickly became one of the top prospects in all of professional baseball. But as he shot up the ranks in the minor leagues and onto the scene with the Detroit Tigers, it's his faith that has gotten the attention of so many.  Kerry shares his powerful testimony of what it took for God to bring him to the foot of the cross. Kerry speaks with humility and kindness, but radiates his passion for Jesus in everything that he does. His story is a reminder of the power, peace, and hope that we have, when we choose to enter into a relationship with Jesus.

Making All Things New

Isaiah 43:19 says, "Behold, I will do a NEW thing, Now it shall spring forth; Shall you not know it? I will even make a road in the wilderness and rivers in the desert." There's something profound and enticing about "newness." Why are we so attracted to it? Why do we look forward to new things? Whether it be a new season, new years, or just simply a new beginning. In today's episode, we look at the words of Jesus and the hope we can have when we take our hands off the wheel and let the Holy Spirit lead us. In whatever season of "New" that you're in, let us be willing to let him do something new IN us and THROUGH us this year.

Redemptions Hill

Welcome Back! It's been way too long, but I'm so excited to launch Season 2 of the CAP!  Isaiah 43:19 says "See, I am doing a new thing! Now it springs up; do you not perceive it? I am making a way in the wilderness and streams in the wasteland."  I'm so excited for what Season 2 has in store and I can confidently say that He is doing a new thing! But I also think this verse speaks well into today's episode. Newly re-named, Grace METZ, joins the podcast to share her testimony of growing up playing every sport under the sun and shares an incredibly relatable testimony of what it looks like to go from secular darkness to living in the light of the glory of God. Grace articulately describes her push and pull relationship with God and what it finally took to pursue a lasting and intimate relationship with Jesus.  I think so often we draw near to God when times are difficult, but rely on ourselves when times are good. This merry-go round of a relationship with God is exhausting and draining and not at all the kind of relationship that God desires FOR us and WITH us. Grace's testimony shares relatable and practical tips for how to enter into a lasting and fulfilling relationship with Jesus Christ.

Title IX Legislation Change?

The Title IX legislation is in the process of trying to be changed - so what is happening and what do believers need to know?  We are joined by a special guest to walk through what this means for high school and collegiate athletics, and how this proposed change will alter the landscape of athletics forever.  We take a biblical look at whether this proposed change is biblical, and what God's word tells us for how we should proclaim truth, even in the face of intense opposition.
