The Two-Parent Privilege: How Americans Stopped Getting Married and Started Falling Behind

Longevity, Competition, Mental Game of Golf

Humble Beginnings

Trials, Setbacks, and Breakthrough

From World Champion to Eternal Purpose

Former two-time U.S. Masters Champion and golf legend, Bernhard Langer, shares about his humble beginnings in Germany, his fascinating golf career, his journey to Christ, and sharing his faith with his family and others.

 

OPTION ULTRASOUND: For just $60 you can save a baby from abortion!

 

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!

 

There's no place like home, right? Just as home brings a sense of belonging, rest, and security, so does a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. If you don't have one, this article can show you how to find your place in God's eternal family.
