Street-Smart Faith: Speaking Truth with Grace

Introduction and Jennifer's Gymnastics Journey

Challenges in Gymnastics 

Debating Gender and Sports

The Impact of Trans Ideology

February is National Girls & Women in Sports Month. Jennifer Sey was an elite U.S. gymnast in the mid-1980s, later becoming a prominent corporate leader at Levi's and the founder of her own apparel brand, XX-XY. She shares how these experiences shaped her commitment to support and protect girl's and women's sports, as she and Jim discuss the impact of trans-ideology on having fair competition. They explore the intense pressures and physical demands of gymnastics, highlighting the culture of abuse and the toll it took on Jennifer’s mental and physical health, which ultimately contributed to her decision to leave the sport just before the Olympic trials. Jennifer emphasizes resilience, the importance of self-advocacy, and the challenges of navigating a changing cultural landscape while maintaining integrity and supporting female athletes.

 

The world is shifting. Truth is under attack. Truth Rising, a new documentary from Focus on the Family and the Colson Center, reveals the crisis shaking faith, identity, and morality. But we can make a difference when we stand in God’s truth. Join the movement—watch now!

 

Here are some key resources – from Focus on the Family and the Daily Citizen – to help parents understand sexual identity confusion; explain to children God’s good design for male and female – and how this is distorted by transgender dogma; and raise children who embrace their God-given masculinity or femininity.

 

19-year-old Chloe Cole shares about the devastating effects of gender transitioning on children, her personal regrets of transitioning as a young teen, and the peace found by trusting in God's perfect design.

 

Focus on the Family's staff of licensed, professional counselors can help you bring healing and restoration to your family with Christian perspectives you can trust.

Fair Play: Jennifer Sey on Resilience and Protecting Women’s Sports

Introduction and Personal Reflections

Dr. Wheeler's Journey and Revelations

The Struggles and Longings of Women

Personal Stories and Reflections

Dr. Wheeler, a former practitioner of second trimester abortions, shares her transformative journey toward becoming a pro-life advocate. She describes a pivotal moment when she became acutely aware of the moral implications of her actions, and how this led her to cease performing abortions. She shares about the cultural influences that shaped her views on feminism and reproductive rights before returning to the Christian faith later in life. Dr. Wheeler recounts her conversations with patients and peers on both sides of the abortion debate, aiming to introduce new perspectives compassionately. She also highlights her efforts in pro-life advocacy, while encouraging others to engage in compassionate, informed discourse.

 

When you give to Focus on the Family’s Option Ultrasound program, you’ll provide training and equipment to introduce a mother to her baby through an ultrasound! This moving experience saves lives and stops abortion.

Rebekah Buell Hagan shares her powerful story of pursuing a chemically-induced abortion and then experiencing a change of heart which led to saving her baby's life. Dr. Bill Lile, a pro-life OB/GYN, explains how the abortion pill works, how its effects may be reversed, and how this option is being provided to women and teen girls who have second thoughts about having an abortion.

A Former Abortion Doctor Speaks Up for Life

NFL Coaching and Faith

Overcoming Adversity: From Player to Coach

Coaching Beyond the Game

As the Seattle Seahawks head into the NFL playoffs as the number one seed in the NFC, Leslie Frazier, Assistant Head Coach, speaks with Jim Daly about modeling a life of integrity and maturity in the NFL while pouring into men's lives. Frazier shares about the people who shaped his life as a young man, player, and coach. He also reveals a longstanding fellowship of coaches in the NFL who are "iron sharpening iron," as they study God's Word and grow spiritually.

 

We all love rooting for our favorite sports teams, but the stadium is only part of a larger arena in life: God’s kingdom. What does faith look like both on and off the playing field? In this special collection, you’ll hear powerful testimonies from athletes with memorable track records in sports and an even greater legacy in faith. Featuring guests like John Smoltz, Darrell Waltrip, Scott Hamilton, Benjamin Watson and more!

Encounter with God is for Bible readers seeking to deepen their understanding of God's Word. Encounter with God leads you through the entire Bible in six years.
