"Christianity is not a religion. It's a relationship." What does this adage actually mean?John 15 gives a picture of this when Jesus describes our relationship to Him as branches attached to a vine. Relationships are attachments. Christianity is about forming an attachment with Jesus Christ, then spending the rest of our lives walking deeper with Him. And if we want to be relationally engaged with God, it makes sense that we'd want to know and cooperate with how He designed us to function relationally.In this On the Trail episode, we discuss Building Bounce Chapter Eight: Connecting with God, where we talk about our faith being in God not the process, listening prayer, discernment, and lifestyle. We also unpack the V.C.R. tool (Validate, Comfort, Recover).This episode wraps up our Building Bounce book study. Next week we're asking the question, "Is Spiritual Warfare optional?" with a two-part prequel series before launching our next book study: What Every Believer Should Know About Spiritual Warfare!Thank you for joining us – father-daughter duo Marcus Warner and Stephanie Warner – on the trail to a deeper walk with God!

D-Lo & KC continue talking about the Finals and KC shares a World Cup question.
My guest for today's episode is Agnes Ngetich: the 10,000m world record holder on the road, the reigning World Cross Country champion, and one of the most compelling athletes in distance running right now. She is 25 years old. She grew up in rural Kenya, lost her father to cancer at 10, and spent much of her adolescence working on farms and carrying bags of charcoal to help feed her family. She missed school to earn money. She showed up to race barefoot and hungry anyway.A coach named Ruth Bundotich saw something in her at 14 and opened a door. From that point, the progression has been relentless: junior titles in Kenya, an African Championships silver, a World U20 bronze, and then the slow build toward the longer distances where she now lives.In 2024 in Valencia, she ran 28:46 for 10 kilometers on the road — the first woman ever under 29 minutes — a record she had to earn three times: once on a course that turned out to be 25 meters short, once in atrocious weather in Lille where she fell eight seconds shy, and finally in Valencia where it was made official. In January 2026, she won the World Cross Country title in Tallahassee by 42 seconds — the second-largest winning margin in the history of the event.Last weekend here in New York, she came back after getting hypothermia at the United NYC Half in March and ran a course record 30:07 at the Mini 10K, blasting the first mile in 4:47 and pulling away from Hellen Obiri before the race was even a kilometer in.In this conversation that we recorded while she was in town, we dive into her childhood, the coach who changed her life, getting to the point of running world records, her World Cross Country dominance, what she thinks of the marathon and more.____________Host: Chris Chavez | @chris_j_chavezGuest: Agnes Ngetich | @jebet.agnesProduced by: Jasmine Fehr | @jasminefehr____________SUPPORT OUR SPONSORSXENDURANCE: Xendurance Protein is designed specifically to help your body recover, rebuild, and get stronger after training.

https://teachhoops.com/ teachhoops.com Episode Title: Are You Teaching Summer Defense… or Just Letting Kids Play? Summer league is where defensive habits are either built… or destroyed. If you let kids “just play” in June, you'll spend all winter trying to fix the same issues: no talk, lazy closeouts, no box outs, and zero urgency. This episode gives coaches a simple, repeatable way to teach real defense in the summer without turning workouts into misery: One Rule Defense. You don't magically become a good defensive team in-season. You become who you are in June. Whatever you allow now becomes your identity later. Players gamble and reach instead of containing Nobody communicates early on screens and drives Kids watch shots instead of hitting first and finishing possessions Transition defense is casual (jogging, blaming, complaining) Coaches focus on the scoreboard instead of habits Pick one defensive rule for the entire week. Not five. One. Coach it every day until it becomes automatic. One Rule Options to Rotate No Middle: contain and force baseline/side Talk First: ball, help, screen calls—silence is losing Hit First: every shot is contact before pursuit Early Help, Early Recover: help before paint, sprint out on kick Sprint Back and Match: no jogging, point and match up Instead of stopping practice every possession, you score the habit: Follow the rule = +1 Break the rule = -1 Examples: Early screen talk = +1 / silence on screen = -1 Great box out = +1 / watching shot = -1 This turns defense into competition and makes habits visible. Defense isn't just “effort.” It's decisions. Simple teaching cue:Ball. Help. Recover. On-ball: contain and force One pass away: gap help, ready to stunt Two passes away: loaded to ball, ready to tag cutters On drive: help early, recover hard, finish with rebound Closeout + Contain (10 min) High hands, no fly-bys, contain with posture and angles 3v3 With the One Rule (10 min) Example: no middle, talk first, or hit first—rule is enforced by score 4v4 Advantage Rotations (10 min) Offense starts with advantage; defense must rotate, communicate, rebound Pressure Finish: One Stop to Win (5 min) Stops only count if the rule is followed (talk + hit first + matchups) Your 7th–9th players show up on defense in June: sprint back talk do dirty work reset after mistakes don't complain Those are the kids you trust in January. Pick your ONE defensive rule for next week. Write it on the board. Score it in every scrimmage. Praise it out loud. Rep it daily. Win June habits to win January games.

Most e-commerce brands pour everything into getting customers to checkout — and then hand them a generic, one-size-fits-all experience that quietly kills the sale. Avi Moskowitz, co-founder of PDQ, has processed millions of checkouts across top Shopify brands (including Jones Road Beauty), and his diagnosis is blunt: cart abandonment isn't a technical problem.

In this Q&A episode, Peter Leithart is joined by Jeff Meyers, Alastair Roberts, and James Bejon to answer listener questions on Trinitarian theology, church unity, family worship, evangelism, and liturgy. They discuss the monarchy of the Father, the biblical pattern of calling the Father “God” and Jesus “Lord,” and the mystery of the Trinity's unity. They also consider what a future united church might look like, how families can practice worship at home without confusing household devotion with church liturgy, whether evangelism is hindered in places devoted to other gods, and how evangelicals can recover richer liturgical practices without simply becoming “high church.” GIVE TO THEOPOLIS! theopolisinstitute.com/give/ Get the Theopolis App! app.theopolisinstitute.com/menu Use Code "theopolitan" to get your first month free!

JEV, as he is known in the world of motorsport, has seen it all in a career that has spanned F1, Formula E and Le Mans to name but a few.

Chris Chavez, Preet Majithia, and Mac Fleet unpack the best week of the 2026 outdoor season with Rome and Stockholm delivering back-to-back historic performances.Discussed in this episode:– Audrey Werro's 1:53.98: The third-fastest woman in 800-meter history, only the third woman ever under 1:54, beats Olympic champion Keely Hodgkinson (1:54.33 personal best, British record) in Stockholm. Historical context: the two women ahead of her — Kratochvílová (1:53.28, 1983) and Olizarenko (1:53.43, 1980) — are from countries that no longer exist and from the peak of the Eastern Bloc doping era. Many can regard Werro's 1:53.98 as the de facto clean world record.– Cooper Lutkenhaus wins the Stockholm men's 800 in 1:42.7: Diamond League debut. 17 years old. Junior year of high school in Texas. Beats Marco Arop (1:43.11), the former world champion and fourth-fastest man in history.– Mondo loses: First defeat since July 2023. 44-meet winning streak snapped– Noah Lyles wins the Rome 100m in 9.88: Noah typically builds slowly in the 100, but 9.88 is early and good. Jordan Anthony faded to fourth after looking promising at 60m.– Women's 200 landscape: Gabby Thomas runs 21.7 at the Lone Star Grand Prix in College Station — third fastest of her career; ulien Alfred has already run 21.86 in Rome, beating Melissa Jefferson-Wooden (her first loss in over a year). MJW bounced back in Stockholm with a 100m win and 10.84. If Shericka Jackson stays healthy, she's probably the pick.– Tate Taylor, 19.97: The second American high schooler to break 20 seconds in the 200. Hear Preet's full objection to the concept of high school records as a category– Looking ahead: LA Grand Prix this weekend.

Ben Rhodes, former Deputy National Security Advisor to President Obama, speaks with Joanna Coles about why he believes Donald Trump is repeating the mistakes the Obama administration spent years trying to avoid, from Iran and the Strait of Hormuz to the unraveling of decades of American diplomacy. Drawing on his firsthand role in the Iran nuclear negotiations and the reopening of relations with Cuba, Rhodes explains how complex deals are actually made, why expertise matters in moments of crisis, and what happens when governments ignore it. He also reflects on Trump's transformation of the White House, the growing influence of tech billionaires, the future of Democratic leadership, and the deeper battle over America's identity that inspired his new book, All We Say. Rhodes offers a rare insider's view of diplomacy, power, and the long-term consequences of decisions that could reshape the global order for years to come.

“Every day you go through these mental battles — how do I keep going? You're in a sport where you don't just leave college and start making a million dollars. You just got to build yourself, almost by yourself.”My guest for today's episode is Sam Blaskowski. Not a ton of you probably knew his name before this weekend. At the Music City Track Carnival in Cleveland, Tennessee last Saturday, he ran 9.89 seconds in the 100m: a wind-legal personal best that shaved 0.16 off his previous mark of 10.05, making him the fastest American of 2026 so far, and putting him at number two in the world this season. He skipped the 9.90s entirely.Sam is 23 years old. He grew up in Wisconsin, went to the University of Wisconsin-La Crosse — a Division III program where his grandparents live a mile from the stadium and both his parents went to school — and graduated without ever contemplating leaving for a Division I program. He has 11 individual NCAA D3 titles. He spent the off-season working at a small regional airport to save money for his move to Florida, where he now trains with Star Athletics under Dennis Mitchell alongside Kenny Bednarek, Sha'Carri Richardson, and Melissa Jefferson-Wooden. This is his first season with the group.The headline that took over the internet is that he is now the fastest white man in history, breaking Christophe Lemaître's 9.92 from 2011. Sam's own take on what he'd rather people focus on: he's number two in the world right now. That's the story he wants told.In this conversation, recorded just 48 hours after the race, Sam walks us through the full arc: the soccer and swimming background, YMCA YouTube tutorials during COVID, and the steady year-over-year drops from 10.29 to 10.13 to 10.09 to 10.05 to 9.89. We also get into what his college coach Matt Gordy unlocked in him and what Star Athletics has done to fix the back half of his race.____________Host: Chris Chavez | @chris_j_chavezGuest: Sam Blaskowski | @samblaskowskiProduced by: Jasmine Fehr | @jasminefehr____________SUPPORT OUR SPONSORSXENDURANCE: When you finish a hard workout, the work isn't actually done.

How do we survive the seasons when our business demands more than we feel capable of giving? In this episode, we discuss what it means to operate at 150% capacity and why some seasons require extraordinary effort. We explore the difference between temporary sacrifice and permanent overload, along with the systems that help us endure difficult periods without destroying ourselves. We share practical strategies for protecting sleep, simplifying decisions, preserving non-negotiables, and reducing decision fatigue. Most importantly, we talk about planning your recovery before the sprint begins so you can return to a healthy pace when the season ends. Main topics: Operating Beyond Normal Capacity Embracing Temporary Business Seasons Protecting Sleep And Energy Simplifying Daily Decisions Planning Intentional Recovery Main takeaway: "The goal isn't to prove how much pain you can tolerate. The goal is to survive the season, accomplish the mission, and still have enough left in the tank to enjoy the life you're building on the other side of it." It's easy to believe that success comes from simply enduring more pain than everyone else. More hours. More stress. More sacrifice. But business ownership isn't a contest to see who can suffer the longest. There are seasons when extraordinary effort is required. Sometimes the business genuinely needs more from us. But the purpose of that effort isn't to earn a badge of honor. It's to accomplish a mission. The real goal is to get through the difficult season while preserving enough energy, health, and relationships to enjoy what you're building when you reach the other side. Work hard when necessary. Recover intentionally when it's over. Build a business that supports your life instead of consuming it. Links: Check out our Starter Packs See all of our discounts!
“By the time we get there, I don't think we'll leave any stone unturned for the first one. There's still room to grow, but I do think I'll be very ready.”My guest for today's episode is Emma Grace Hurley: an ASICS athlete and one of the most consistent American road racers of the last two years. She trains under Andrew and Amy Begley at Heartland Track Club in Indianapolis, and in 2026 she has already set the American Record at 8K (24:29 at the Shamrock Shuffle), won the USATF 10-Mile title at Cherry Blossom, won the 25K title at the Gate River Run and finished second at the USATF 5K Championships in her own city, running 15:00 flat to miss the sub-15 barrier by four-tenths of a second.She is also, as of this week, officially confirmed as one of the scoring members of the U.S. half marathon team for Copenhagen — one of the three athletes who were misdirected in the closing mile of the USATF Half Marathon Championships in Atlanta in March. World Athletics granted a special exception that will allow seven American women to compete, with Jess McClain, Emma Grace, and Ednah Kurgat as the scoring athletes alongside Weini Kelati. The top three official finishers — Molly Born, Carrie Ellwood, and Annie Rodenfels — will make their international debuts as non-scoring athletes.What makes Emma Grace one of the more interesting stories in American distance running right now is the shape of her career. She graduated from Furman in 2020 with a 15:57 5K personal best, quit running entirely, took a client associate job at JP Morgan, and did not think she was coming back to the sport. She is now a 15:00 road 5K runner, an 8K American record holder, a national 10-mile champion, and a two-event Worlds qualifier. She has not run a marathon yet — it's happening this fall.In this conversation, recorded in Brooklyn, we get into all of it: what it actually took to bounce back after Atlanta and immediately set a national record three weeks later, why she doesn't love the track but is a 15-flat road 5K runner, the Cherry Blossom 10-mile where she lost the overall by one second to a woman who finished seventh in the 10,000m at the Tokyo Olympics, the moment she finally felt like the long slow build was paying off, and what scares her most about the marathon block ahead.____________Host: Chris Chavez | @chris_j_chavezGuest: Emma Grace Hurley | @emmagracehurleyProduced by: Jasmine Fehr | @jasminefehr____________SUPPORT OUR SPONSORSXENDURANCE: Xendurance Protein is designed specifically to help your body recover, rebuild, and get stronger after training.
