Welcome to Church Pew Sports Ep 180  -  Brotherhood, Baseball & Saying Goodbye: Faith and Sports in Life's Toughest Moments After a short break, Church Pew Sports returns with a powerful blend of sports talk and soul-level reflections. Hosted by Bill Hobson alongside co-hosts Pastor Paul Miller, Scott Holmgren, and David Collins, this episode begins with a spirited dive into the Detroit Tigers' surprising rise, the evolving landscape of Major League Baseball, and how the NCAA's historic settlement is reshaping college sports as we know it. The guys take on hot topics with their usual insight and humor—from the puzzling economics of baseball contracts (will Chris Ilitch pay Tarek Skubal what he's worth?) to the quirks of umpiring in an era of automated calls and helmet taps. They also unpack how the MLB app, shifting sports commentary trends, and changes in TV contracts are affecting fan engagement. But what sets this episode apart isn't just the sports commentary—it's the deeply personal turn the conversation takes near the end. In the final segment, Pastor Paul Miller shares an emotional update on the recent loss of his 94-year-old father, a moment that brings the meaning of Church Pew Sports into sharp focus. His honest reflections on caregiving, grief, and what it means to be supported by a “band of brothers” will resonate with every listener who has navigated loss or leaned on friends through tough times. This segment powerfully reminds us that while sports are fun and important, they also serve as the backdrop for deeper connections—between fathers and sons, between friends, and within the podcasting community itself. Paul's words are a tribute not only to his father but to the strength found in friendship, faith, and brotherhood. In true Church Pew fashion, the episode ends with encouragement for men everywhere: stay connected. In a world that often isolates, this podcast is a living example of what happens when men show up for each other—on and off the mic. Whether you came for the baseball or stayed for the brotherhood, this episode delivers on every level. --------- Did you know you can now WATCH Church Pew Sports on our new YOUTUBE Channel?

Welcome to Church Pew Sports Ep 179 - Either/Or: Sports Debates, Loyalty, and Life Lessons In this lively and thought-provoking episode of Church Pew Sports, hosts Bill Hobson and Pastor Paul Miller welcome a brand-new guest: Pastor Mike Szoradi, a passionate Arizona sports fan and youth pastor with a strong Michigan family connection. What follows is a rapid-fire conversation packed with hot sports takes, irrational fan loyalty, and biblical life insights—all through the lens of sports. The crew kicks off with a fun introduction to Mike, diving into his long-suffering loyalty to the Arizona Cardinals and his love for the Phoenix Suns. But things heat up as the group launches into a round of “either/or” sports decisions—where bold takes are required, and no one's allowed to ride the fence. First up: should the Dallas Mavericks keep their draft lottery pick to select Cooper Flagg or trade it all for the proven greatness of Giannis Antetokounmpo? Mike and Paul both make the case for Giannis, with Bill joining in agreement—highlighting not just Giannis' elite skills, but his calm demeanor and leadership qualities. Then the trio switches gears to compare playoff atmospheres—NBA vs NHL. While Mike's NBA loyalty is rooted in his Arizona upbringing, Bill gives the edge to the nail-biting overtime thrill of NHL postseason action. Paul, ever the balance-keeper, appreciates both but finds NBA storylines this year especially compelling. The show dives deeper into current sports controversies, including whether Michael Jordan will thrive as a broadcaster, the impact and perception of Draymond Green's behavior, and the possibility of Pete Rose and Shoeless Joe Jackson entering the MLB Hall of Fame now that their bans have been lifted. Mike urges accountability, while Bill suggests history—with all its blemishes—should still be preserved. Broadcasters like Rich Eisen and Pat McAfee also enter the discussion, with Mike favoring Eisen's polished style and Paul highlighting McAfee's fit with College GameDay. Bill agrees—McAfee may not suit daily sports talk, but he lights up the right setting. The group wraps with a debate on college football kickoff times (noon vs primetime), critiques of controversial sports media content and owner decisions, and a few standout sports stories—from Shohei Ohtani's surprise strikeout to heartfelt high school traditions. As always, the episode closes with a powerful spiritual reflection—this time on Proverbs 19:21—reminding listeners that many are the plans in a person's heart, but it's the Lord's purpose that prevails. Don't miss this high-energy episode filled with opinions, passion, and purpose.

"When Grace Stands Between You and Justice"

Message preached by Reverand Bill Hobson on Sunday, May 4, 2025

Welcome to the Fore Golfers Network/Michigan Golf Live Podcast Ep 470 - Caddie Tales & Life Lessons: Behind the Bag at Whistling Straits with Mark Milatz In this powerful and insightful episode, host Bill Hobson sits down with Mark Milatz, author of Caddie Tales and host of the podcast by the same name. Together, they take you inside the ropes at Whistling Straits, sharing untold stories from the caddie's perspective — from sore feet and stolen shoes to the emotional rollercoaster of dealing with high-strung golfers. Mark opens up about the physical demands of caddie life, the importance of investing in quality gear like Hoka shoes, and the potential recovery benefits of ice baths. He and Bill also explore the mental side of golf, highlighting how the game reflects deeper truths about a person's character, expectations, and attitude toward life. They tackle tough topics, including inappropriate behavior toward female staff, and the challenges of managing pace of play while dealing with strong personalities on the course. Mark's journey is as inspiring as it is raw — a former pastor who battled addiction and found redemption through golf, storytelling, and authentic human connection. Caddie Tales isn't just about golf — it's about growth, respect, recovery, and relationships. Whether you're a player, a fan, or someone curious about the lessons behind the game, this episode offers wisdom, humor, and heart.

Welcome to the Fore Golfers Network/Michigan Golf Live Podcast Ep 466 - Scotland, Sportswashing And The Love of Golf - Joel Beall In this in-depth interview, host Bill Hobson talks with author Joel Beall about his groundbreaking new book, Playing Dirty: Rediscovering Golf's Soul in Scotland in an Age of Sportswashing and Civil War. Beall takes us inside the battle for the soul of golf as the PGA Tour and LIV Golf wage war over the future of the sport, with billions of dollars, reputations, and the game's traditions at stake. Beall's journey leads him to Scotland, golf's birthplace, where he examines whether the sport's original values still hold strong amid the chaos of modern professional golf. He explores the impact of sportswashing—where powerful financial forces, including Saudi-backed LIV Golf, are reshaping the game—and questions whether the PGA Tour is truly the defender of golf's legacy or just another self-serving entity. This eye-opening discussion uncovers the greed, politics, and shifting allegiances defining golf's civil war. Beall provides a candid look at what's happening behind the scenes, the consequences for players and fans, and whether golf can ever return to its roots. Whether you're a die-hard golf fan or just fascinated by the intersection of sports, money, and power, this interview is a must-watch!

Welcome to the Marriage Talk Podcast - Ep 186 - Your Guide To Arguing Properly Dr. Gary Smalley had some great tips for couples when they argue. They are: 1. Don't escalate the argument. This seems simple enough, but we all do it. So, next time you start to argue, step back, take a deep breath and count to 10. 2. Don't withdraw from the argument. Disagreeing actually means you care. Oft en withdrawing from an argument doesn't make the problem go away. 3. Don't belittle your spouse. Name calling is a verbal hand grenade for your marriage. Words like, “you're so stubborn,” or, “you're such a brat,” can never solve an argument. 4. Don't project on your spouse something they are not. If your husband isn't ready to buy a new couch, don't call him cheap. If your wife wants a new dress, don't call her a diva. ------------ WATCH the Marriage Talk Podcast on our YouTube Channel CLICK HERE for more information on the ministry and marriage events hosted by Jay and Laura Laffoon CLICK HERE for more information on Bill Hobson and the Hobson Media Podcast Network Have a question, comment, suggestion for Marriage Talk?

Welcome to the Marriage Talk Podcast - Ep 184 - Is Your Wife A "Weaker Vessel" or Fine China? 1 Peter 3:7 reads, “Husbands, in the same way be considerate as you live with your wives, and treat them with respect as the weaker vessel and as heirs with you of the gracious gift of life, so that nothing will hinder your prayers.” Th is is perhaps one of the most controversial passages of Scripture when it comes to marriage, because no woman wants to be considered as a “weaker vessel.” However, if we dig deeper into the meaning of the phrase “weaker vessel,” it is actually a term the ancients used for fine china. It was called weaker vessel because it was not as clunky as everyday dishes. So let's read that again: “Husbands, in the same way be considerate as you live with your wives, and treat them with respect as fine china....” Now there is a great example of how to treat our wives. And the result? Our prayers will not be hindered!   ------------ WATCH the Marriage Talk Podcast on our YouTube Channel CLICK HERE for more information on the ministry and marriage events hosted by Jay and Laura Laffoon CLICK HERE for more information on Bill Hobson and the Hobson Media Podcast Network Have a question, comment, suggestion for Marriage Talk?

Welcome to the Marriage Talk Podcast - Ep 183 - Is The Perfect Marriage Pure Fiction? Is there such a thing as the perfect marriage? The spouse God gave us is all we will ever need in our marriage. Satan will try to get you to believe that there is someone “better” out there, but don't be fooled, we're all fallen creatures that have scars and pasts and baggage. When you grasp the idea that your spouse, given to you by God, is all you ever need, you start looking at that person in an entirely different light. Looking for the good and not the bad; the helpful not the hurtful, and your marriage grows strong. ------------ WATCH the Marriage Talk Podcast on our YouTube Channel CLICK HERE for more information on the ministry and marriage events hosted by Jay and Laura Laffoon CLICK HERE for more information on Bill Hobson and the Hobson Media Podcast Network Have a question, comment, suggestion for Marriage Talk?
