July 12, 2026 - Sunday AM Sermon This episode is a sermon-length reflection on trusting God, using vivid real-world examples and biblical teaching to show how faith should shape every area of life. Hiram opens with familiar figures—Ben Carson, Chesley Sullenberger, Nick Saban and educator Jaime Escalante—to illustrate why experience earns trust, then challenges listeners to place the same confidence in God, who is eternal and never fails. The episode walks through seven specific areas where Christians should entrust themselves to God: 1) leave vengeance to God and trust Him to repay the wicked (Deuteronomy 32, Romans 12); 2) pray and rely on God for daily provision, illustrated by Exodus 16 and Matthew 6; 3) believe that God works all things together for good and adopt a "rearview" theology that sees God's purposes in hindsight (Romans 8:28, Joseph and David examples); 4) trust in God's full forgiveness through the New Covenant (Hebrews 8, Jeremiah 31, 1 John); 5) allow God to direct your path by trusting rather than leaning on your own understanding (Proverbs 3:5–6); 6) have confidence that God will preserve the church (Daniel 2, Matthew 16); and 7) rest in God's promise to save you in the end (Isaiah, 1 John, 2 Timothy). Along the way the sermon emphasizes practical implications—stop seeking personal revenge, pray the Lord's Prayer for daily bread, give generously because God owns all, trade anxiety for peace by trusting God's providence, and respond in repentance and baptism if you haven't yet obeyed the gospel (Acts 2:38). Scriptural references are woven throughout to support each point, and the message closes with an invitation to respond and an encouragement that God's faithful, providential care allows believers to live a life of relief and assurance.   Duration 34:47

Was the outrage over Jon Sumrall's SEC Media Days podium joke completely overblown? And did Kalen DeBoer actually give the most Nick Saban-like answer possible when asked whether his Alabama tenure will be defined by winning a national championship? Jim Dunaway joins Connor O'Gara for Episode 6 of The Connor O'Gara Show to break down the biggest stories and debates coming out of SEC Media Days in Tampa.

The conversation also dives deep into Kalen DeBoer's championship expectations at Alabama, Stephen A. Smith's criticism of DeBoer, Nick Saban's famous “process” mentality and why Alabama could be one of the most unpredictable teams in college football.

Plus, Connor and Jim discuss the SEC's potential nine-game conference schedule, Greg Sankey's College Football Playoff argument, whether a 9-3 SEC team would receive the benefit of the doubt and how many automatic playoff spots the conference deserves.

Hour 1 of Wednesday's 3 Man Front continued our coverage from SEC Media Days as the Alabama Crimson Tide took center stage, we heard Kalen DeBoer & Nick Saban's comments on the 2026 season & more!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Could the SEC actually break away from the NCAA? On this episode of Last Call, Mick Gillispie and former Alabama national championship quarterback Jake Coker react to Greg Sankey's eye-opening comments from SEC Media Days and discuss why college football's lack of leadership, inconsistent NIL rules and massive financial disparities could eventually lead to a new super-league. The guys examine how a potential SEC and Big Ten breakaway could reshape college football, whether programs like Clemson and Florida State could eventually join the SEC, and why the current system cannot regulate Alabama, Texas, Ohio State and Michigan the same way it regulates smaller athletic departments. Jake also revisits the legendary feud between Nick Saban and Jimbo Fisher, revealing how personally Fisher took Saban's comments about Texas A&M recruiting. With NIL spending now becoming the standard across college football, does Jimbo's furious response look even worse in hindsight? The conversation then turns to the culture Nick Saban built at Alabama. Jake shares inside stories about the player-led leadership of Jarran Reed, Jonathan Allen, A'Shawn Robinson, Ryan Anderson and other Crimson Tide stars—including how Scott Cochran reportedly broke a second-place trophy to reinforce Alabama's championship-or-bust mentality. Can that type of culture still exist in the transfer portal and NIL era? Plus, Alabama was picked to finish a stunning seventh in the SEC preseason poll. Are Kalen DeBoer and the Crimson Tide being overlooked? Jake breaks down Ryan Grubb's quarterback development, Alabama's loaded QB room, Kane Wommack's defense, concerns about the offensive line and running game, and why the Tide could once again use preseason disrespect as motivation. And, of course, Jake and Mick debate what truly qualifies someone as a “redneck,” complete with stories about Jimbo Fisher, hunting, giant bucks and turkey heads.

Joe Rose is joined by Hollywood from ACC Media Days and Kim Bokamper in studio to discuss the biggest storylines surrounding the ACC entering the season. The guys debate the possibility of the College Football Playoff expanding to 24 teams, examine why Miami enters the year as the conference favorite once again, and question whether the Hurricanes can finally avoid the costly upset losses that have kept them from winning an ACC title. They also discuss Bill Belichick entering his second season at North Carolina, whether he'll take a step forward this year, and compare his coaching style and public persona to Nick Saban, whose personality has flourished since stepping away from coaching.
