Sports as a way to bring us together, to pursue excellence and good @Baylor Day 2 with @FaithSportsInst at the Fourth Global Congress on Sport and Christianity @TruettSeminary
Been an absolute treat of a day at the Global Congress on Sport & Christianity. My mind & heart are overflowing with such great content & conversations. Looking forward to another great day tomorrow. @p_emory@Baylor@FaithSportsInst
Lots of people helped make the 4th Global Congress on Sport and Christianity a success.
But the crew with me here deserves a major shoutout. For 5 days they served in countless ways behind the scenes. They made it possible for attendees to share, connect, and learn.
Grateful 🙏
This past weekend honored to present at the 4th Global Congress on Sport & Christianity with my TCU FCA brothers @ColemanMaxwell and @Mitchell_Traver.
We shared a theological argument for the ministry of presence—why showing up changes lives.
Thanks to Dr. Paul Putz for leading a powerful conference!

When I look back at 2025, my trip to @Baylor is going to be one of those marking moments in my life. The people, conversations, topics, humility...I could go on & on. Thanks to @p_emory@FaithSportsInst@SportFaithLife for a great time. Also, thanks to @RedhawksAD for sending me!
Introducing speakers, greeting and welcoming people, facilitating conversation with smart panelists...these pics capture a lot of what I got to do at the 4th Global Congress on Sport and Christianity.
