Competing Biblically Podcast

On today's episode, Lindsay joins Nick & Seth to talk about what it means to be an athlete who is a servant or slave to Christ. Those two concepts do not seem to fit together at first, but Scripture definitely teaches us that we are to be slaves and servants of Christ, and athletics is no different.
