Podcast appearances and mentions of Jeff Simmons

Time is precious. God has given us life. We were born for a reason and a purpose. We often complain that we don't have enough time. It is really not about time, but about priorities. Therefore, we must prioritize the time God has given us and live each moment for Him. To know  God is Sovereign over this world and over our lives. May we learn to understand how precious our time is so that we gain a heart of wisdom. Wisdom to live each moment for the glory of God.

On this episode of The Science of Fishing, Mark Farag sits down with Tennessee Titans star Jeff Simmons — one of the NFL's most dominant defensive linemen — to talk about the unexpected place he finds peace: fishing.Jeff shares how he teamed up with pro angler Jaselyn Berthelot and the Mississippi Blues Angling Club at SFC's The Catch — a competitive fishing event that brought athletes and anglers together on the water. What started as a high-energy tournament turned into a personal reminder for Jeff about why he loves fishing in the first place.They dive into how fishing helps Jeff decompress from the pressure of NFL life, the mindset overlap between sports and the outdoors, and what it means to find stillness in a high-impact world. From battling in the trenches on Sundays to chasing redfish on the Gulf, Jeff opens up in a way fans rarely get to hear.Whether you're into football, fishing, or stories that hit deeper than stats and scales — this episode brings it all together.Football. Fishing. Focus. And the people who live it.

In Ecclesiastes Chapter 2, Solomon explores the pursuits of pleasure, achievement and possessions, ultimately finding them all meaningless apart from God. While God wants us to enjoy life, these pursuits become empty when they are self-centered or disconnected from Him. Solomon concludes that true fulfillment—wisdom, joy and purpose—comes only from God. The Westminster Shorter Catechism affirms that “Man's chief end is to glorify God, and to enjoy Him forever.” Let's determine to invest the rest of our lives in the pursuit of what really matters - a relationship with God through His Son, Jesus.

Ecclesiastes was written by Solomon in his old age. Solomon was the wisest and wealthiest person to ever live. He was king over all Israel. Although Solomon started well, he did not finish well. He drifted from God and pursued the things of this world. He writes Ecclesiastes as a warning to those who come behind him to keep God first in their life. Solomon pursued everything this world has to offer and found it all “meaningless.” We all get one shot at life, so let's not waste it on things that are trivial. Invest your life in what matters. Always keep God first.

Jesus meets us right where we are — in the ordinary moments of life and in the depths of our struggles. Just as He filled the empty nets of the disciples, He fills our emptiness with His abundance. Jesus restores the broken and meets us even when we wander. He redirects our steps back to Him, calling pastors to love Him, feed and care for His flock, and calling all His people to love Jesus, come hungry for more of Him, care for one another, and faithfully follow. Jesus performed countless miracles in scripture, but we are also part of His miracles — lives redeemed, restored, and repurposed for His glory. The most important thing about our future is that our next step moves us closer to Jesus.

Jesus is the Miracle Worker. Jesus is greater than anything we face in this life. Jesus has the power over life and death. We must know that Jesus' miracles come in His timing - not always our timing. Do we pray for miracles and trust in His timing? Regardless of what you face in life, you can always know Jesus is greater. He loves you! Once you come alive in Christ, then live in His freedom as His disciple. Will you believe and experience a miracle today?

In John 9, we see a powerful story of healing that starts with mud, spit, and obedience but it quickly becomes something deeper. Jesus heals a man born blind, showing that God often does His greatest work through our pain. But the miracle doesn't make life easier—it disrupts everything. The man loses his status, his neighbors' trust, his parents' support, and his place in the religious community. Yet, as the conflict builds, so does his clarity. What began as physical healing becomes a journey of faith: first seeing Jesus as a man, then a prophet, and finally, the Son of God. The real miracle wasn't just that he could see, it's that he came to believe, and he worshipped.

As followers of Jesus, sometimes we can think that we will not have any problems. There are so many blessings with being a Christian, but we still live in a broken and fallen world, which means we will all go through storms. One day, it will all be perfect in Heaven, but until that day comes, we must learn to have faith in Jesus and live in His peace in the middle of the storms. God promises to “never leave us or forsake us.” Jesus will walk on water to come to us. And our faith must grow to the point to step out of the boat and trust in Him. With Jesus, you are never alone, and you can experience peace in your storm.

Our God is a God of miracles. In one of Jesus' most famous miracles in the Bible, Jesus feeds 5,000 men (probably more like 15,000 to 20,000 people) with only five loaves of bread and two small fish. When we place a little in the hands of Jesus, He multiplies it and more. So often, we forget about Jesus. When we are in need, call out to the God of miracles. Jesus is always more than enough. Will you place your life in His hands today? Will you place your faith in Jesus and watch Him do miracles in you and through you for His glory? Live as a disciple of Jesus.

The story of Jesus healing at the Pool of Bethesda is more than just a physical miracle—it's a picture of spiritual transformation. Just as the man had been waiting for years by the pool, stuck in his condition, many of us find ourselves trapped in cycles of waiting, hoping for change but unsure of how to step into healing. Jesus doesn't just restore bodies; He calls us to get up, pick up our past, and walk forward in faith, leaving behind the things that once held us back and stepping into the new life He offers.

Jesus' miracles, showing that miracles are not just about physical healing but about restoring faith and revealing God's greater purpose. This moment builds on previous signs, leading to deeper belief in Jesus as the source of life. The nobleman's desperate plea for his son's life mirrors our own need for healing and hope, reminding us that hope leads to faith even when circumstances seem hopeless. Ultimately, the miracle points beyond itself—to God's desire to heal not only individuals, but entire families, communities, and a broken world. Just as God gave His Son to bring eternal life, He uses moments of healing to invite us into belief.

Parenting is the hardest thing you will ever do in your life and yet the most beautiful and rewarding. The church is called to raise up the next generation in the Lord. This takes all of us. Parenting today is a challenge, but our God is faithful. God has entrusted your children to you, and our children to us as His Church. Parenting doesn't stop at 18, but takes a lifetime. Many times, “bigger kids, bigger problems,” and we are called to pray and trust in the Sovereignty of our God. He loves our children even more than we do. Let's spend our life knowing Jesus and passing on what He has poured into us to the next generation. This is our time!

Parenting is not just about raising good kids—it's about raising them to know, love, and follow Jesus. Our role is to intentionally guide them through the Spiritual Mile Markers of life, transferring their dependence from us to God. What we model, they will absorb. So ask yourself: Are you creating a home where faith is lived, not just spoken? Let's be parents who don't just hope our kids find Jesus—we lead them there by the way we live, love, and trust Him ourselves.

Parents are called to guide their children with wisdom, setting firm yet loving boundaries, especially in the digital age. While the internet and smartphones have revolutionized the world, they have also exposed children to risks, often with little regulation. To foster self-regulation and well-adjusted adulthood, parents must set clear digital boundaries—limiting screen time, restricting content, designating device-free spaces, and modeling healthy tech habits. However, boundaries must be implemented with understanding and relationship, using them as teaching moments rooted in biblical wisdom. Practical steps, such as delaying smartphones and social media, promoting offline play, and staying steadfast in the long journey of parenting, remind parents that they are not alone—God is their shepherd in this mission.

Parenting today can be the greatest joy and yet the most challenging part of anyone's life. But, God wants us to succeed! God wants us to thrive in our parenting and not just survive. Therefore, God gives us His Word, His Spirit and His Church. Having a personal, growing relationship with God through Jesus Christ, His Son, is the most important part of parenting. And, having godly leaders at church is so essential to raising our kids and the next generation in Christ. Let's cover our children in prayer and endeavor to thrive in parenting today.

God wants you to grow in your faith and to share His love with others. This comes by being rooted in Christ. Growing deep roots in Jesus and then allowing His love to flow out of you. Jesus then calls us to plant seeds of the Gospel in the hearts and lives of others. “The harvest is plentiful…,” Jesus said, “...but the workers are few. Ask the Lord of the harvest to send out workers into His harvest field.” Matthew 9. God has called each of us to share our faith and to invest in others for His glory. This is where we grow spiritually and impact the world for Christ.
