Faith and Sports - What Does Philippians 4:13 Really Mean? - EP 21
What happens when a locker room prayer becomes the most important play of the game? In this episode of Looking Under Rocks, we sit down with strength and conditioning coach Carrie Jones along with student athletes Maya and Cameron to explore how faith shapes life on and off the field. The conversation dives into Philippians 4:13, pre-game prayer routines, handling wins and losses with the right perspective, and the deep sense of brotherhood and community that sports and faith can build together. We hope this conversation encourages young athletes and coaches alike to see competition as a place where character and calling can grow side by side. Tune in to hear how faith and athletics intersect in powerful, practical ways for the next generation.
