In this episode, we discuss how to break free from mental strongholds, negative thoughts, and specifically the lies we believe about who we are. We are not defined by our performance and what others think. We are who God declares us to be! "You shall know the truth and the truth will set you free" (John 8:32) Podcast Notes Stronghold Buster Worksheet - Free PDF We are Pure Encouragement. Our Mission At Pure Encouragement, our mission is to come alongside Competitors for Christ to strengthen and encourage them to compete with excellence and make an eternal impact. In the New Testament, the word most often translated as "encouragement" is "parakalein." This term comes from two Greek words: "para" meaning "alongside of" and "kaleo" meaning "to call.” A Parakletos is therefore an Encourager, one who puts courage into the fainthearted, strength into the weak, life into the downtrodden, confidence into the insecure, and steadfastness into every warrior in the face of great trial. We believe this is our role in the Body of Christ. We are the Pure Encouragers of the sports community on a mission to strengthen every Competitor for Christ to intimacy with Jesus, strong confidence, servant leadership, excellent performance, and eternal impact. Our Story In September 2021, the Lord called the Steffes family to follow Him into the unknown. After much prayer, Gary and his wife Michelle stepped out in faith knowing the Lord's call was to be "in ministry." The Lord began to open doors in the sports world with competitors, teams, and universities around the country. Momentum grew. The Inside Out Confidence message spread. Journey groups started. The Pure Encouragement ministry officially started on May 3, 2022. Today, the ministry gets the privilege to come alongside Competitors for Christ at all levels and in multiple sports around the world. More info at pureencouragement.org

My guests today are gold medal beach volleyball champion Kent Steffes and beach volleyball player and author Travis Mewhirter. I don't care if you have an interest in beach volleyball, if you want to know what a winner's mindset is, then this is a conversation for you. Kent's unique approach to reaching goals, be it sport or business, is worth your time. His deep philosophical approach to executing a strategy is an example of a 1% person of the 1%. He readily admits there is a cost for winning and shares how he navigated that or re-framed it during his career. Kent and Travis's new book KINGS OF SUMMER, a history of men's beach volleyball, is out now. I just wish I knew Kent better 35 years ago to learn just the three things all the great volleyball players do. What did Kent do after he won the gold at 27? Headed to Stanford business school and did a complete pivot at 30. If you want to listen to someone who approaches things in a way most of us don't, tune in.
