036 Building a Faith That Lasts (Part 2): Pressure, Playoffs & Perseverance
from BaldNSassy · host chrisjbailey00
Faith gets tested under pressure — kind of like teams in the playoffs. In Part 2 of Building a Faith That Lasts, Chris & Chris kick things off the only way they know how: talking about the latest NFL coach firings, reacting to the Wild Card playoff chaos, and talking through the College Football Playoff semifinal matchups. Because let’s be honest — leadership, pressure, and preparation show up just as much on the field as they do in our faith. From there, the conversation shifts deeper as we talk about what happens when faith meets adversity. How do you stay grounded when things don’t go your way? What does perseverance look like when God feels quiet? And what can losing seasons, leadership changes, and high-stakes moments teach us about trust, endurance, and obedience? If you’re navigating pressure — in sports, school, work, or life — this episode connects the dots between perseverance on the field and perseverance in following Jesus. 📖 “Blessed is the one who perseveres under trial, because, having stood the test, that person will receive the crown of life that the Lord has promised to those who love him.” — James 1:12
