Kahlil Carter - Hug the Mountain
Aug 14, 20261h 10mS3
Life can change on a single roster decision, a single injury, or a single moment when someone labels you as “not enough.” That’s why our conversation with former pro football player and coach Khalil Carter hits so hard: he’s lived the undrafted grind, he’s been cut, he’s battled pride, and he’s still choosing purpose over bitterness. We get into the football details you rarely hear explained well, from arena football as “full tackle skelly” with wild scores and a short-memory mindset, to the CFL’s uniquely Canadian fan culture and community feel. But the real heartbeat is what those leagues taught him about resilience, criticism, humility, and relationships. Khalil shares how a slow-developing athlete can still rise through consistent work, learning from veterans, and refusing to quit when the pressure is at its worst. Faith is woven through every layer of the story, not as branding, but as a daily practice. Khalil talks about temptation, the pull of image, and what it means to “hug the mountain” and stay close to God when the edge looks exciting. He also explains the deeper meaning behind “Coach Swag” as serving a wonderful and amazing God and helping students pursue athletic and academic goals with character. If you’re a coach, athlete, parent, or fan looking for a Christian sports podcast that speaks honestly about pro football, leadership, and identity, this one will stay with you.

A goalie can do almost everything right and still wear the one mistake that ends up on highlights. That’s why we wanted to sit down with Dylan Ferguson, a professional hockey goaltender who’s lived the full range: soft goals you can’t believe went in, pressure that hits like a wave, and career turns that happen so fast you barely have time to breathe. Our conversation starts light, then quickly gets honest about what it really takes to guard the net when every shot feels personal and every game feels like a test. We dig into the goaltending mindset and the mental game of hockey, including how Dylan handles the infamous “bad one,” why he moved away from superstition, and what he does to stay present when the stakes climb. Dylan also shares how faith shapes his preparation and his peace, from prayer before games to the idea of playing for an audience of one. Even if you’re not a goalie, you’ll hear practical tools around visualization, routine, and rebuilding confidence under real pressure. Dylan’s career story is a reminder that timing can flip overnight. We talk junior hockey life, billets, being drafted then traded almost immediately, and what it’s like to be thrown into an NHL start against elite talent. From there we explore the AHL grind, being “one injury away,” and the constant push to prove you belong. We also get into recovery, nutrition, and offseason training choices and bodyweight work that help a goalie stay durable for the long haul. If you’re into hockey, sports psychology, goalie training, or faith in sport, there’s a lot here to take with you. Subscribe, share this with a friend, and leave a review if it helped you.

A windmill pitch from 43 feet changes everything and Kirsten Deal explains why, in a way that makes college softball impossible to dismiss. We sit down with the University of Oklahoma Sooners pitcher to break down the real differences between softball and baseball: a compressed field, seven innings, faster plays at every base, and hitters forced to decide almost instantly. If you’ve ever wondered why a 60 mph softball can feel like a blur, Kirsten walks us through release points, movement pitches, and the deception that makes the game so tough. From there, we shift from mechanics to moments. Kirsten relives the emotions around a no-hitter, the pace of a championship-level season, and what it takes to stay steady when recognition shows up and expectations spike. We also talk about the high school grind behind the highlights: travel sacrifices, missing events, recruiting during COVID on Zoom, and the perfection mindset that can quietly crush confidence. Faith is woven through every part of her story. Kirsten shares how her walk with Jesus matures from childhood to high school and deepens in college through Fellowship of Christian Athletes, team chaplain support, and mentors who keep her identity rooted beyond sport. One unforgettable day frames the whole message: Oklahoma’s win streak ends, and her baptism happens anyway, with teammates calling it the bigger win. If you care about softball, mental performance, or what it means to compete with joy and purpose, you’ll leave with practical takeaways and a better definition of success.

One freak moment in a roping arena changed everything for Mark Johnson: a shattered pelvis, months of weakness, and then the gut-punch discovery that surgery had damaged his vocal cords. For a lifelong broadcaster and play-by-play voice, that is not just an injury, it is an identity crisis. Mark walks us through the fear of losing the very tool he has depended on, and the deeper question underneath it: what happens when God touches the thing you secretly believe you earned? We also trace Mark’s story back to the pain that shaped him long before the accident, including the suicide of his father when Mark was 18 and the long anger that followed. He shares how marriage, career pressure, and raising a disabled son forced him to stop trying to bulldoze life through intensity and self-reliance. The conversation keeps circling back to the same centre: the quiet, unseen work of Scripture, prayer, and surrender that produces real strength, the kind that holds up in the valley and not just on the highlight reel. If you’re an athlete, coach, parent, or sports fan trying to connect faith and performance, you’ll hear practical wisdom about humility, discipline, mentorship, and what it means to glorify God not only in wins but in losses.

Kez McCorvey - What if Your Talent Is Not Your Identity
Jul 10, 20261h 36mS3
One bad 40-yard dash. One letter read out loud in class. One decision to cut distractions and get serious. Kez McCorvey’s path to a Florida State scholarship and pro football is the kind of story that sounds like a highlight reel, but what hit us hardest is what happens when the game stops loving you back. We walk through Kez’s childhood in small-town Mississippi, the mentors who stepped in when he needed direction, and the coaches who planted seeds long before he was ready to hear them. He opens up about pride, getting derailed by attention, and the grief of losing his sister, then the sharp moment where motivation returns and he gets dialed in. From Florida State to the NFL, Kez shares the hidden side of elite sport: insecurity, injuries, and the shock of being cut and brought back, and how that rejection exposed where he had placed his value. The conversation turns to faith, healing, and learning a new “operating system” built on grace instead of performance. Kez explains what freedom looks like for a Christian athlete, why sport can reveal your gifts without becoming your identity, and how his time with the Edmonton Eskimos helped shape what he now does through Legacy Playmakers Inc, mentoring students and planting seeds in schools. If you care about athlete mindset, coaching mentorship, purpose, and faith in sports, listen all the way through, then subscribe, share this with a teammate, and leave a review so more people can find the gospel in the game.
