In this message, Eric unpacks the powerful call in 3rd John to support the mission of Jesus around the world—not out of obligation, but out of love, partnership, and purpose. Drawing from Scripture and real-world stories, he reminds us that while everyone plays a role in sharing the gospel, God still calls and sends a few to the far reaches—and He expects the rest of us to make sure they have what they need. Eric helps us see that providing for missionaries isn't just generosity—it's faithfulness to the heart of God. From the hurting in distant nations to the neighbor next door, the need for the gospel is urgent and real. Today's outreach contribution isn't about charity—it's about joining the mission of God with our hearts and our resources. As Eric says, “They'll give Jesus there—we'll send the money from here.”

What's really happening in baptism—and why does it matter? In this powerful message, Eric unpacks the meaning, purpose, and timing of baptism, answering common questions with both humor and biblical depth. Why was Jesus baptized, and why does He command it for His followers? What does it mean to be united with Christ in His death and resurrection through water and Spirit? Eric walks through key scriptures to show how baptism is not a human work but God's rescue mission—our moment of transformation, forgiveness, and new life. Whether you're wondering if you're ready or reflecting on your own baptism, this message offers clarity, encouragement, and hope.

In this sermon, Eric Gentry explores the powerful truth found in Ephesians 2:4–5—“But God…”—two words that change everything. Dead in our sin and unable to save ourselves, we are made alive with Christ, not because of our righteousness, but because of God's great love and rich mercy. This message unpacks the staggering grace of God—a grace so vast, we need new words to describe it. Whether you feel weighed down by guilt, failure, or simply the weight of life, this sermon will remind you: Grace wins every time.

Have you ever experienced the power of a true blessing? In this heartfelt Senior Sunday message, Eric shares a personal story of being blessed in a moment of fear and uncertainty — a reminder of how deeply the gift of blessing can renew and strengthen us. If you're new to faith or still exploring, this is the perfect Sunday to jump in: you'll see the heart of our church's vision — building up the next generation. Eric unpacks how God's blessing isn't just words, but a way to bring heaven's power into our lives, teaching us how to call down His joy and peace over others. You'll leave reminded that the greatest gift we can give our seniors — or anyone — is not more stuff, but the shining face of God over their lives.

In this Easter Sunday message, Eric explores the most powerful sign in John's Gospel—the resurrection of Jesus. From Mary Magdalene's tearful encounter at the empty tomb to Thomas's declaration of faith, “My Lord and my God,” this sermon walks through the eyewitness moments that changed history. Eric tackles the honest doubts many have about the resurrection, asking: Did it really happen? With thoughtful evidence and personal stories, he makes the case for a living Savior who conquered death. This isn't blind faith—it's belief rooted in history, testimony, and transformation. If you've ever wondered whether it's all real, this message is for you.

In this sermon, Eric explores the final moments of Jesus' life and the deep meaning behind two powerful words: Fulfilled and Finished. He unpacks why Jesus' death on the cross was not a tragic accident but the very plan of God—foretold in Scripture and completed in perfect obedience. Eric helps us see how the Lamb of God truly takes away the sin of the world. The cross is not the end of the story, but the victorious fulfillment of it. This message will deepen your understanding of why Jesus matters—and why his final breath changes everything.

In this sermon, Eric Gentry walks through John 11 and the raising of Lazarus to show us how Jesus meets us in our deepest pain. Even as we face the harsh truth that death is inevitable, Jesus reveals a greater reality: death does not have the final word. With tenderness and power, Jesus enters our grief not to explain it away, but to transform it with his glory. What looks like delay is actually love—because knowing Him is eternal life. This message invites us to trust the Teacher when our math doesn't make sense and believe that in Christ, we are made alive—even when all seems lost. Join us as we explore how the resurrection of Lazarus speaks hope into our own stories of sorrow.

Based on John 9, this message explores the miraculous healing of a man born blind and the deeper truth it reveals—Jesus as the light of the world. Through this sign, we see not only physical sight restored but also spiritual blindness confronted. Like the blind man who came to see and believe, we are invited to step into the light of Christ, gaining clarity in a world clouded by darkness. With reflections on Amazing Grace, C.S. Lewis, and the life-changing power of grace, this sermon challenges us to ask: Are we truly seeing? Join us as we seek the light that makes all things clear.

Eric's sermon, “The Signs: Walking on Water,” takes you deep into the miraculous moment when Jesus walked across the stormy Sea of Galilee to reach his disciples. Through John 6:16-21, Eric unpacks how Jesus' presence in the midst of darkness and chaos brings peace, security, and purpose. He connects this powerful story to Moses' plea in Exodus 33—a reminder that we should never go where God's presence does not lead. Just as Jesus calmed the storm and brought his disciples safely to shore, He still does the same for us today. If you've ever felt lost, afraid, or overwhelmed, this message will remind you that no distance, darkness, or storm can keep Jesus from coming to you.

Eric's sermon, The Signs: Feeding the 5,000/ The Bread of Life, is a powerful message that challenges us to consider what truly satisfies our deepest hunger. Through the miraculous story in John 6, we see how Jesus not only fed a massive crowd but revealed Himself as the Bread of Life, offering eternal satisfaction beyond physical needs. Drawing connections from history, culture, and even Steve Jobs' famous words, “Stay hungry. Stay foolish,” this sermon invites us to rethink where we seek fulfillment. Jesus' invitation isn't just to receive but to participate—He calls His disciples, then and now, to be part of His mission. Don't miss this eye-opening message that reminds us: staying hungry is foolish when Jesus offers the only bread that truly satisfies.

Eric's sermon, The Signs: Healing the Lame Man, dives deep into John 5:1-18, exploring Jesus' miraculous healing and its powerful implications. He challenges us to consider whether we truly want to be healed, recognizing that healing comes with new responsibilities and faith steps. Through the story of the lame man, we see how Jesus exposes the emptiness of worldly solutions and calls us to trust in Him alone. This sermon will inspire you to reflect on your own spiritual journey—where are you resisting healing, and where is Jesus calling you to step forward? Don't miss this opportunity to experience the transformative power of Christ's grace and authority!

Eric's sermon, The Signs: Healing of the Royal Son, is a powerful message about faith, persistence, and recognizing who Jesus truly is. Through the story of a desperate father seeking healing for his son, we see an example of deep trust and transformation—one that still speaks to parents and believers today. Eric explores how Jesus' miracles are more than just signs of power; they reveal His identity as the Savior of the World. He challenges us to move beyond simply welcoming Jesus into our lives and instead honor Him with true belief. Don't miss this compelling message that will inspire you to take Jesus at His word and trust Him fully.

Eric's sermon, The Signs: Water to Wine, reveals the deeper meaning behind Jesus' first miracle in John 2:1-11. More than just turning water into wine, this moment is a powerful sign—a glimpse into Jesus' divine power, his desire for our joy, and his grace that takes our emptiness and fills it with abundance.

With rich insights from Charles Spurgeon, Richard Burroughs, and stories of faith like Elizabeth Elliot's, Eric explores how God's unchanging promise—“Never will I leave you; never will I forsake you”—offers us all we need. Discover how contentment isn't about what we have but Who we trust, and how breaking free from the love of money leads to true joy.

Start your 2025 with a message that speaks to your heart and encourages meaningful change. In this week's lesson, Eric looks at Hebrews 13:1-3, exploring the power of love in three vital relationships: siblings, strangers, and sufferers. Eric challenges us to embrace love as an expression of gratitude for all we've received from God. Whether it's deepening family bonds, showing hospitality to those we don't know, or empathizing with the suffering, this message invites us to live a life that pleases God and transforms others. Don't miss this chance to begin your year with love in action.

Discover the secret to a life that truly pleases God with today's lesson called, “A Pleasing Life: To Please God.” Journey through the remarkable faith of Enoch, who was commended by God for his unwavering belief, and explore how this same faith—rooted in trust and endurance—can transform your own walk with Christ. Eric unpacks powerful truths from Hebrews 11, reminding us that pleasing God starts with faith that sees, believes, and perseveres through life's challenges. Be encouraged by stories of human endurance, like Ernest Shackleton's Antarctic journey, and see how Jesus empowers us to endure and thrive, even in weakness. This message will challenge, uplift, and remind you to live for “One Well Done.”

Have you ever felt caught between the weight of your past and the uncertainty of your future? In today's message called The Difference He Makes, Eric Gentry takes us on a journey to rediscover the true meaning of Christmas and how Jesus changes everything. Using the five foundational scriptures, he shows how Jesus not only redeems our past but also fills our future with hope and purpose. Whether you're questioning the heart of Christmas like Charlie Brown or looking to deepen your faith, this sermon invites you to fix your eyes on Jesus—the One who transforms regret into redemption and anxiety into peace. Come and see how the birth of Christ brings the ultimate gift: freedom and hope for today and tomorrow.

Join Eric as he unpacks one of life's most profound and challenging questions: What does it really mean to have faith? Drawing from Hebrews 11, he explores how faith is not a blind leap into the unknown but a tangible connection between what we see and what we cannot. Through powerful stories, relatable illustrations (yes, even Indiana Jones and spiderwebs!), and Scripture, Eric brings clarity to how faith is more than belief—it's a response to God's ongoing presence and promises. Discover how faith bridges the seen and unseen, offering us hope and assurance to stand firm even in life's hardest moments.

In a world where we're constantly asking, “Am I doing this right?”, Hebrews 10:36-39 offers a bold and grounding answer: persevere and belong. In our message today, Eric unpacks this powerful passage, showing us how faith anchors us in truth, identity, and hope amidst life's uncertainties. Discover why perseverance isn't just about holding on but about drawing near to Christ, the source of all strength. Be inspired by the “Heroes of Faith” in Hebrews 11, not as distant legends but as part of a family you belong to—those who don't shrink back but stand firm. This sermon will equip you to live out your faith with confidence and clarity, reminding you that you are called to a greater promise and a stronger community.

Today's sermon from Eric on Discipline from Hebrews 12:4-12 is an exploration of how God uses discipline to grow His children in maturity and faith. He contrasts the Stoic view of pain and resistance with a distinctly Christian perspective, emphasizing that God's discipline is an act of love rather than meaningless suffering. He expands the concept of discipline beyond correction to include direction, showing how God uses both pain and hardship to guide believers toward holiness and deeper submission. Ultimately, the message is one of encouragement: God's discipline is not punitive but purposeful, aimed at producing righteousness, peace, and a fuller life in Christ.

In today's message, Eric unpacks 3rd John 5-8, highlighting the profound importance of supporting missionaries who go out “for the sake of the Name.” Missionaries are uniquely committed to glorifying Jesus and advancing His truth, often at great personal cost, making our support for them an act of partnership with God. Eric challenges us to examine our own motivations, aligning them with the singular purpose of honoring Christ's name. Supporting missions is not just a calling for the few but an opportunity for all to participate in God's plan to make His name known to the nations.

Oue lesson today reflects on the call to spiritual maturity and understanding in the Christian faith, drawing from passages in Hebrews. Eric encourages us to move beyond basic teachings and embrace a deeper grasp of God's word, moving from “milk” to “solid food.” He addresses the risk of spiritual stagnation and urges us to actively engage with our faith, developing discernment to distinguish good from evil. Eric also reminds us that even lengthy teachings are brief compared to the depth of truth available in scripture. Overall, it's a message that challenges us to avoid complacency and pursue growth in our spiritual lives.

This sermon focuses on Jesus as our eternal High Priest, emphasizing His role as an intercessor who continually advocates for us before God. Eric explores the comfort we can draw from Christ's “permanent priesthood,” which provides assurance of salvation despite our struggles and doubts. Drawing on Hebrews 4-10, the sermon highlights that Jesus, who understands our weaknesses, invites us to approach God with confidence. We are also reminded that Jesus' intercession is unending, affirming that He is always “for us.” Ultimately, we are encouraged to hold firm in faith, knowing they are completely seen and saved through Christ's steadfast intercession.

Today's message emphasizes the theological connection between law, blood, and forgiveness in the Christian faith. It draws from Hebrews 9:22, stating that forgiveness requires the shedding of blood, and Leviticus 17:11, where life and atonement are linked to blood. Eric explains that blood represents life and that atonement involves offering life for life, preserving the covenant between God and humanity. Ultimately, the sermon points to Jesus as the ultimate sacrifice, fulfilling the requirements for forgiveness.

Today's message emphasizes the importance of drawing near to God and holding firmly to our faith because of Jesus Christ's role as our high priest. Eric highlights how Jesus empathizes with our weaknesses, as He was tempted just as we are, yet remained without sin. As a result, believers can approach God with confidence, assured of receiving mercy and grace in times of need. We see in the book of Hebrews, stressing that through Christ's sacrifice, we have been given direct access to the Most Holy Place. Therefore, we are encouraged to remain steadfast in our faith and approach God with sincerity, trusting in His promises.

In this edition of the Peristyle Podcast hosts Ryan Abraham and Connor Morrissette (aka "Triple Double") are back in studio with lots to talk about in the USC football world, following the heartbreaking overtime loss to Penn State. The guys take one quick look back at what went wrong late in the game against the Nittany Lions before turning the page and taking a look ahead at the long road trip to take on Maryland. The Trojans are still looking for their first road victory in Big Ten conference play and the Terps are a desperate squad after getting blown out at home at the hands of Northwestern, despite being a two-score favorite. Maryland is 3-3 and haven't notched a conference victory, so this could be another field storming opportunity if the Trojans once again can't figure out a way to win. They also discuss the breaking news that both defensive end Anthony Lucas and linebacker Eric Gentry will be out for the rest of the season and what impact that could have on that side of the ball going forward. They also discuss the Penn State fan that paid to run out of the tunnel with the Trojans, Lincoln Riley announcing that the team would be leaving later than normal on Friday for the long trip to Maryland, the basketball team's first exhibition game and lots more.

The Helium Boys return to break down USC's heartbreaking 33-30 overtime loss to No. 4 Penn State as a potential turn-the-season-around win eluded the Trojans in another tight game.

The episode opens with the Helium Boys staple 'Two-Minute Drill' where Chris spends half of his time on his initial thoughts of the Penn State game before dedicating his final minute to what Maryland football meant to him growing up and how it helped lead him to this point in his life where he gets to cover a USC-Maryland football game. Shotgun then takes the 'Two-Minute Drill' reins to again talk about the inconsistency of Big Ten officiating and discusses why he's bullish on the Trojans' chances to go on a run in the second half of the season. Chris and Shotgun then dive into their Stock Up/Stock Down segment looking at the players and themes that saw their stock rise or dip over the last week. A couple of bounce-back performances earned Quinten Joyner and Jaylin Smith spots on the Stock Up side. The young defensive depth is also on the rise as Devan Thompkins got his first career start and led the team with four pressures while Desman Stephens II's fourth-ever snap with the first team saw him intercept Drew Allar and return it 42 yards. On the flip side, the Trojans' pass rush struggles and inability to defend Tyler Warren are featured prominently in the Stock Down portion. The Helium Boys then preview the upcoming road trip to Chris Trevino Country for the Trojans, taking a look at the key storyline, player and matchup before positing scenarios that would cause USC to win and scenarios that would cause USC to lose Saturday afternoon's game. There are a couple consensus picks among the podcasting duo as both are looking for Miller Moss to have a big impact and are keeping a watchful eye on the Trojans' pass rush against a porous Terrapin offensive line. After a break, the podcast duo answer your mailbag questions discussing all manner of items from the USC coaching staff's preparedness, Big Ten officials, what next season holds and learning how to win close games. The episode concludes with a role reversal as Shotgun quizzes Trevino with some Take It or Leave Its about the Trojans, including if Eric Gentry can continue to lead the team in some defensive categories even if he doesn't return this season.

Our message today discusses a passage in Hebrews 4 that points back to a seemingly random passage from Genesis, but we find out that they are very connected. Eric explores the biblical account of Abram's encounter with Melchizedek after a victory in battle, highlighting the spiritual significance of Melchizedek as a priest of God Most High. This lesson emphasizes the importance of recognizing these divinely orchestrated moments that reveal God's hand in our lives. It also concludes with a reference to Psalm 110, which prophesies a future priesthood modeled after Melchizedek that comes to be through Jesus.

In this edition of the Peristyle Podcast hosts Ryan Abraham and Connor Morrissette (aka "Triple Double") are back in studio discussing the worst result of the season for this USC football team, an upset loss on the road to Minnesota and the need for a quick turnaround with the No. 4 Nittany Lions coming to town. Connor and Ryan talk about the struggles these Trojans have had in conference play, especially on the road, and what they need to do to get a much needed victory over one of the best teams in the country. The guys have updates from what head coach Lincoln Riley had to say during his media appearances including injury updates, linebacker Eric Gentry potentially shutting it down after multiple concussions and his interaction with the Big Ten conference regarding the questionable calls in the game at Minnesota. As bad as the loss to the Golden Gophers was, USC does have a tremendous opportunity to get things going in the right direction by defeating a top-5 Penn State program on Saturday. The guys talk about this game and some of the strengths and weaknesses of this Nittany Lions squad. They also discuss the Trojans lack of explosive plays, new concerns on tackling, USC being "2 plays away from 5-0," the end of the National Letter of Intent, USC basketball's scrimmage and lots more.

Our message today emphasizes the importance of listening to God's voice, not drifting away, and not hardening one's heart, referencing Hebrews 3:7-11 and Psalm 95. Eric highlights the faithfulness of Jesus, who was loyal to the one who appointed Him, drawing from Hebrews 3:1. We are all reminded that Christ is faithful as the Son over God's house. The condition for remaining part of God's house is holding firmly to confidence and the hope found in Christ, as expressed in Hebrews 3:6.

In this edition of the Peristyle Podcast hosts Ryan Abraham and Connor Morrissette (aka "Triple Double") are back in studio discussing the Trojans second half comeback over Wisconsin and the upcoming road trip against Minnesota. After some time to digest what went down Saturday in the Coliseum the guys share their thoughts on the game, including what they heard from Lincoln Riley on Trojans Live and following Tuesday's practice. Riley was able to provide some injury updates including safety Akili Arnold and linebacker Eric Gentry being listed as questionable for the road trip to Minnesota. As expected, there was no sight of Bear Alexander at practice and no further update on his status with the team. We they have discussed since Connor broke the news last week, we don't expect to see Bear around the team for the rest of the season. Linebacker Raesjon Davis also appears to be a redshirt candidate as he was wearing a scout team jersey during Tuesday's practice. There was also a lot of talk about the offensive line focusing on the fundamentals coming off of that Michigan loss. The front five played better against Wisconsin, but there was still a lot of pressure on Miller Moss and they need to keep developing and improving as the season goes on. Looking ahead the guys talk about this extremely important business trip to Minneapolis where the Trojans will try to secure their first road win in Big Ten conference play. The Golden Gophers are 2-3 on the season but gave Michigan all it could handle last weekend in the Big House, so USC will need to come to play if it wants to improve to 4-1 overall and 2-1 in the conference.

This lesson emphasizes the importance of paying careful attention to the message of salvation. Eric stresses the consequences of neglecting this great salvation. The passage from Hebrews 2:1-4 serves as a warning that we must remain vigilant and avoid drifting away from the salvation that has been offered. It calls believers to recognize the greatness of God's salvation and to respond with reverence. Ultimately, we are challenged to take seriously our salvation and not ignore the grace offered to us.

Shotgun Spratling and Chris Trevino return behind the microphones for another episode of the Helium Boys Podcast, a serious non-serious USC football podcast. The Helium Boys are back to break down USC's disappointing 24-17 loss to Michigan in Minneapolis as their first-ever conference Big Ten road win again evaded the Trojans. They also look forward to USC's upcoming matchup against a top five Penn State team in the Coliseum this weekend. The episode opens with the Helium Boys staple 'Two-Minute Drill' that Shotgun apparently has no regard for any more after blatantly abusing the timer as he rants about the inconsistency of the Big Ten officiating that USC has been subjected to during their tenure in the conference. Chris then takes the 'Two-Minute Drill' reins to talk about his trip to Minnesota Chris and Shotgun then dive into their Stock Up/Stock Down segment looking at the players and themes that saw their stock rise or dip this week. Woody Marks continues to be a stock up candidate after another strong performance. Eric Gentry's stock was on the rise despite not playing while youngsters Alani Noa and Jide Abasiri are on the climb as is USC's run blocking. On the flip side, the Trojans' run defense and inability to get off of blocks is discussed heavily in the Stock Down portion. The Helium Boys then preview the upcoming Big Ten home opener against No. 4 Penn State for the Trojans, taking a look at the key storyline, player and matchup before positing scenarios that would cause USC to win and scenarios that would cause USC to lose Saturday afternoon's game. After a break, the podcast duo answer your mailbag questions discussing the offensive line play and the warmth of offensive line coach Josh Henson's seat, zebra issues and Greedy Vance Jr. The episode concludes with Chris quizzing Shotgun with some Take It or Leave Its about the upcoming game and the state of Pennsylvania before having him cold rank the eight most American things in the Mall of America.

BadgerExtra reporters Colten Bartholomew and Jake Kocorowski break down both sides of the ball when Luke Fickell and his University of Wisconsin football team head out west to face Big Ten newcomer USC. Here's our breakdown: [3:04] Wisconsin's offense vs. USC's defense. Can the Badgers use the rushing attack to slow the game's pace down, or do you speed it up using tempo (the latter being something Fickell believes quarterback Braedyn Locke could do within Phil Longo's scheme?). Is there a happy medium or balance to do both? [16:44] A particular matchup to watch between Wisconsin tackles Jack Nelson and Riley Mahlman against USC linebacker Eric Gentry. [19:14] Wisconsin's defense vs. USC's offense. How can the Badgers disrupt Trojans quarterback Miller Moss? Where will the pressure have to come from? [27:40] One All-American returner Wisconsin will have to contain this week as well.

Today's message is a lesson out of Hebrews that points to Christ being mentioned throughout all of Scripture. Eric explains how Jesus reveals the true nature of God and is constantly being pointed back to in the Old Testament from writers in the New Testament. This is a great message for those who love the nature of Jesus but struggle with the nature of God in the Old Testament.

Shotgun Spratling and Chris Trevino return for a special Tunnel Vision takeover episode of the Helium Boys Podcast, a serious non-serious USC football prodcast. The Helium Boys are back with a special guest interview with USC linebacker Eric Gentry where he talks about regaining his confidence, his passion for film study, the Trojans' defensive turnaround and his affinity for Wawa.  Gentry discusses how he's been able to get off to a great start to the season, leading the team with 14 tackles, including a team-best 3.5 tackles for loss, through the first two games. He credits the new coaching staff for helping him take his game to another level, including linebackers coach Matt Entz helping him decipher presnap indicators that have helped him play a step faster. A lot of that comes from his work in the film room, which is something Gentry has taken very seriously since now-Las Vegas Raiders head coach Antonio Pierce helped show him the importance during their time together at Arizona State. The 6-foot-6 linebacker also talks about the freedom he has in the new defense, how defensive coordinator D'Anton Lynn asks for and uses his feedback from the field and discusses when he realized the Trojans could have a good defense this year. He tries to define what his role in USC's defense is, and Gentry even looks back and opens up about the school he wanted an offer from growing up that never came. After a break, Shotgun and Chris delve into Gentry's personality, which has an on-field/off-field duality. Gentry also talks about the role his faith plays as a Muslim football player and why music is so important to him, particularly on game days. The episode concludes with the podcasting duo quizzing the Philadelphia native about his home city with Chris throwing some Take It or Leave Its about the iconic elements of Philly at Gentry.

Today's lesson highlights how God has spoken to us through Jesus, showing that He's not just the Son, but also the creator of everything and the perfect reflection of God's nature. We are encouraged to really focus on the message we've heard about Jesus so we don't lose our way or drift from our faith. The point is made that Jesus is not only our Savior but also the one who represents us before God, so we should keep our minds and hearts fixed on Him. It's a reminder of how important it is to stay grounded in what Jesus has done and who He is. Overall, we are called to recognize the deep need and awe we should have for Him.

In this Bye Week edition of the Bleav in USC podcast, Coop catches up with Luca Evans of the Southern California New Group for their weekly conversation, diving into all things Trojan football after USC routs Utah State 48-0. Takeaways from the tight end position, the development of Eric Gentry, how expectations might be changing, and could the Michigan game now be a must-win?

Shotgun Spratling and Chris Trevino return behind the microphones for another episode of the Helium Boys Podcast, a serious non-serious USC football prodcast. The Helium Boys are back to break down USC's 48-0 thrashing of Utah State in the Trojans' home opener and discuss how the Trojans should be evaluated entering their bye week before a huge showdown with Michigan. The episode opens with the Helium Boys staple 'Two-Minute Drill.' Shotgun raves about how good the Trojan defense has looked under the defensive staff of D'Anton Lynn, Eric Henderson, Matt Entz and Doug Belk after USC notched its first shutout in 13 years. Chris then takes the 'Two-Minute Drill' reins to talk about how important blowout victories are for the development of a program because of the opportunities it allows young players to get on the field, get their feet wet and get adjusted to the speed and physicality of the college game.. Chris and Shotgun then dive into their stocks in Stock Up/Stock Down looking at what players or elements were elevated or took a hit based on preseason expectations and the first game of the season. Both Helium Boys gush about the play of linebacker Eric Gentry, who seems to be having more fun than anyone in the stadium on game days and who is having a huge impact on a play-in, play-out basis. Shotgun goes as far as to put Gentry on All-American watch with the way he has shined through the first two games. There is plenty of stocks on the rise after a 48-0 win with Miller Moss, the running back group, young defenders and Lake McRee's surgeon all getting some love. The Stock Down section is much shorter as is to be expected, but one element Shotgun harps on is the receivers catching. After a break, the podcast duo answer your mailbag questions discussing among other things what it will take for the Trojans to be able to keep Lynn around for more than one season and what kind of adjustments Lynn can make against a Michigan offense that has struggled thus far. They also give their suggestions for an improved Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum and talk about Lincoln Riley's red zone passing game play calling. The episode concludes with Chris quizzing Shotgun with some Take It or Leave Its around rankings and player performances. Please review, rate and subscribe to the Peristyle Podcast on Apple Podcasts!

Today's message emphasizes the importance of living a life deeply rooted in Jesus Christ, as highlighted in Colossians 2:6-7. It emphasizes the concept of union with Christ, which brings about various spiritual benefits such as fruitfulness, forgiveness, adoption, inheritance, love, encouragement, and comfort. The message also focuses on the assurance of our union with Christ through the Holy Spirit, based on 1 John 4:13. Finally, it draws attention to the mysterious and powerful work of the Holy Spirit in believers' lives, as illustrated in John 3:8.

Author Richard Rohr said, Christianity is basically about two becoming one. It is about uniting with Christ. It's not logical for 1+1 to equal 1, but that is what uniting with Christ is supposed to look like. In this lesson, Eric dives into our need for Christ and the union we form with Him.

God hardwires us, at the level of our heart, for certain desires. And what we should always ask is: How does Christianity offer the heart what the world can't; something more satisfying? So…What is the Christian motivation of working a job in our community? What we find in Scripture is that we should let God work on our hearts, and he'll change our experience of work.

Have you ever asked yourself- "Does my work matter? Why am I working? Does God care about my work?" Today we will ask these questions and talk about what the Bible has to say about work. What we find is encouraging to some, challenging to others, but it applies to us all.
