Providing for Your Household | Antoine Hood | 1 Timothy 5:8
# Providing for Your Household | Athlete Disciples Podcast ft. Antoine Hood What does it truly mean to provide for your family according to God's Word? In this episode of Athlete Disciples, Christian sits down with former NBA player, entrepreneur, author, cancer survivor, husband, and father of seven, Antoine Hood, to unpack one of the strongest verses in Scripture: **1 Timothy 5:8**. Together they discuss biblical manhood, stewardship, legacy, provision, intentionality, and what it means to faithfully lead your family—not just financially, but spiritually, emotionally, mentally, and physically. Antoine shares why this verse radically challenged him, why men need authentic biblical community, and how God's call to provide extends far beyond paying bills. This conversation is a powerful reminder that our greatest responsibility is to faithfully steward everything God has entrusted to us while building a legacy that points future generations to Christ. **In this episode you'll learn:** * Why 1 Timothy 5:8 is one of the most challenging verses for Christian men * The biblical meaning of provision beyond finances * How intentionality shapes your marriage, children, and legacy * Why community and brotherhood are essential for spiritual growth * The difference between comfort and calling * How to build a multi-generational legacy rooted in Christ **Key Scripture:** *"Anyone who does not provide for their relatives, and especially for their own household, has denied the faith and is worse than an unbeliever."* — 1 Timothy 5:8 Whether you're an athlete, husband, father, business owner, or simply striving to become the man God has called you to be, this episode will challenge you to pursue excellence, embrace responsibility, and faithfully steward every gift God has placed in your hands. If this conversation encouraged you, share it with another husband, father, teammate, or brother in Christ. Together, let's continue making disciples who make disciples and live lives that bring glory to Jesus.

From Club Volleyball to D1 and Back to God | Adamah Jackson Testimony
Working for the Lord, Not for Men | Athlete Disciples Podcast ft. Adama Jackson What does it look like to compete, work, serve, and live for Jesus—not for the approval of people? In this episode of Athlete Disciples, Christian sits down with NCAA Division I volleyball athlete Adama Jackson to dive into **Colossians 3:23–25** and discuss how athletes can honor God through every practice, workout, class, conversation, and challenge. Adama shares his powerful testimony of growing up in the church, drifting from his faith during college, battling depression, and how God used a forgotten Bible, forgiveness, and intentional discipleship to completely transform his life. Together, they discuss trusting God's timing, finding identity in Christ instead of performance, the importance of biblical community, and why every task becomes an act of worship when it's done for the Lord. Whether you're an athlete, coach, parent, or simply pursuing Jesus in your everyday life, this conversation will encourage you to work wholeheartedly for Christ and trust Him with every season. **In this episode you'll discover:** * Why Colossians 3:23–25 is one of the most important passages for athletes * How to stop living for the approval of coaches, bosses, and other people * The power of discipleship and biblical community * Adama's journey from spiritual drift to being on fire for Christ * How God can redeem difficult seasons and use them for His glory * Practical ways to glorify Jesus through everyday work and competition **Key Scripture:** *"Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for human masters."* — Colossians 3:23 If this episode encouraged you, share it with a teammate, coach, or friend who needs the reminder that our greatest reward isn't found in wins or recognition—it's found in faithfully following Jesus.
