But the good news is, Jesus shares his birthright with those who believe.

Were it not for the famous Lizzie Borden murder trial taking place five hundred miles away in Fall River, Massachusetts, the story of the phantom train of Cambria County might have become well-known outside of Carrolltown. This tiny borough sits twenty miles west of Altoona, and, in 1892, became a stop on the newly-formed Cambria & Clearfied Railroad. The focal point of this rail line was a tunnel constructed through Strittmatter Hill, just south of Carrolltown. And it was near this spot where one of the strangest unexplained events in Pennsylvania history took place.

Join us again this week as we continue our series on Genesis, with chapter 24 verses 1-27.

In this first half, we follow Abraham's trusted servant on a dangerous 900 mile journey to find a wife for Isaac. In this sermon we'll cover:Why this journey mattered so much to the promises of GodHow to walk by faith when the outcome is unknown7 timeless principles for doing God's work todayWhy God uses people to fulfill His eternal missionHow to live a life that echoes into eternityYou can visit Walnut Creek Church - Altoona at wcaltoona.org

Pirates lefty prospect Dominic Perachi joins North Shore Nine to talk about his journey from Division III Salve Regina University to professional baseball, his recovery from injury, and his impressive finish to the 2025 season.

Pittsburgh Pirates pitching prospect Jaden Woods joins North Shore Nine for a laid-back “Get to Know” interview as he gets ready to head west for the Arizona Fall League. The left-hander opens up about his routine on and off the field, from playing golf every Monday with teammates to learning how to face adversity in Double-A Altoona. Woods breaks down what makes the Eastern League so tough, how he's embraced life as a reliever, and why conviction will be his theme heading into 2026. We also talk fun stuff — Chipotle orders, golf handicaps, favorite Atlanta artists, and even a potential Georgia–Ole Miss rivalry with fellow prospect Derek Diamond.

We're joined by Pittsburgh Pirates pitching prospect Derek Diamond as he hits the road for his second stint in the Arizona Fall League.

He talks about the transition from starter to bullpen, how he's building his pitch arsenal around a much-improved fastball, and why his changeup has become a true out pitch. We also dive into his AFL experiences—what it's like facing top prospects, learning a new role, and even starting the Fall League All-Star Game. Plus, Derek shares off-day favorites in Arizona, his love of golf, his offseason training goals, and a little Ole Miss vs. Georgia football trash talk. This is a fun and insightful conversation with one of the Pirates' most intriguing arms—don't miss it!

Join us as we launch into our newest sermon series on Genesis, continuing where we left off with chapter 23, verses 1-20. In this chapter, Abraham faces the heartbreaking loss of his wife, Sarah. And while this chapter may seem like a random, obscure negotiation for land, it's actually one of the most profound acts of faith in the Old Testament. Abraham puts faith in God's promises, trusting in a future he can't see yet, but one he knows will come to pass because he has seen what God has already done.Abraham only owned a cave and a field, but he lived like heaven was his true homeland. We're called to do the same.

Pirates pre/post game host Dan Zangrilli joined the show. The Pirates swept the Rockies over the weekend. Bubba Chandler earned a 4-inning save in his debut Friday night. Paul Skenes shut out Colorado over 7 innings yesterday. The guys shared a staggering stat about the 2025 Pirates and their home/road splits. Dan shared his reaction of Bubba's debut, but mentioned how he didn't think his call-up was deserved at the time. Dan said there is a lot to be excited about when it comes to Pirates pitching in 2026. Will we see Chandler in the bulk relief role for the remainder of the season? Dan thinks Konnor Griffin has an outside chance to break spring training with the club going into 2026, the way Jared Jones did last year. Griffin has good early returns in Altoona and Dan wants to see the bump up to AAA before the season is over.

A classic QB debate to start the show. Should the Steelers use a short-term IR spot on Will Howard? Poni thinks the team may really have something on the rookie QB, despite him not playing a down of preseason football. Chris wanted Poni to temper down the hype, but he wasn't having it. What should the expectations be for Howard? Are people already turning on Will Howard? A quick Pitt-Penn State discussion. Pirates pre/post game host Dan Zangrilli joined the show.
