   Number 2: The Season You Want to Escape Has a Purpose - Brady Russell, Pastor Joby Martin & Denny Thompson

   Pastor Joby Martin and Denny Thompson sit down with Super Bowl champion Brady Russell of the Seattle Seahawks. Brady grew up in church, led FCA in high school, and knew all the right answers. But looking back, he realized there was a major difference between knowing about Jesus and actually knowing Him. Brady walks through the seasons when God’s plan made little sense in the moment. At Colorado, he had every reason to leave, but while praying he felt God tell him to “be where your feet are.” What followed was one of the hardest seasons of his life, and Brady began wondering if he had heard God wrong. It was only later that he saw what God had been doing through him the entire time. Joby, Denny, and Brady talk about trusting God when you cannot see the outcome, why obedience often comes before understanding, how to recognize God’s faithfulness in hindsight, and what it looks like to follow Jesus when the people around you do not. Brady shares why he prayed for a platform as a kid, only to discover that his greatest platform would not be fame or attention. It would be the relationships right in front of him. Today, Brady is using that platform to disciple other NFL players, lead Bible studies, and live out a faith that can be seen in the way he works, leads, and serves. It is a conversation about being faithful where God has placed you and trusting that no season is wasted when He is the one leading you.

   Number 3: The Evidence for Jesus is Undeniable - Jeremiah Johnston, Pastor Joby Martin & Denny Thompson

   Pastor Joby Martin and Denny Thompson sit down with Dr. Jeremiah Johnston, New York Times bestselling author of The Jesus Discoveries, president of the Christian Thinkers Society, and one of the world's leading scholars on the resurrection of Jesus. He earned his PhD at Oxford studying the resurrection. Jeremiah did not just talk about the evidence. He put it on the table. The oldest fragment of the New Testament. A replica of the whip that took a third of Jesus's blood. A crown of thorns cut in Jerusalem the week before, from the same tree the Ark of the Covenant was built from. Coins of every man who tried to kill Jesus. And a real first century crucifixion nail, bent and rusted from use, that left Denny speechless. Then he walks through the physics of the Shroud of Turin: an image one fifth the width of a human hair, created by 34 billion watts of energy in a fraction of a billionth of a second, that science still cannot replicate. Joby, Denny, and Jeremiah talk about how we have 5,800 manuscripts of the New Testament, the miraculous healing of Jeremiah's son Abel, why you are the pastor of your home, why faith was never meant to be faith in faith, and the moment a box marked Crown of Thorns showed up on Denny’s doorstep.

   Number 4: The Enemy Doesn’t Care How He Hooks You - Edwin Martin, Pastor Joby Martin & Denny Thompson

   Pastor Joby Martin and Denny Thompson sit down with Edwin Martin on this week’s episode of Built 4 More. At 20 years old, Edwin was hiding a four year gambling addiction that nearly cost him his life. He was borrowing money he couldn’t repay, carrying debts no one knew about, and placing bets from the church pew while claiming to follow Jesus. It ended with Edwin alone on his bathroom floor, ready to take his own life. He prayed one desperate prayer: “God, if You are real, reveal Yourself.” Ten seconds later, his best friend unexpectedly texted him three words: “I love you.” That text interrupted Edwin’s darkest moment, and the friend who sent it would eventually lead him to Christ. Five years later, Edwin is an endurance athlete using every mile to point people toward hope. He recently ran 133.2 miles on a treadmill for 24 hours straight at a 10:49 minute per mile pace to raise money for suicide prevention. Months earlier, he ran across the entire state of South Carolina to support families battling cancer. Joby, Denny, and Edwin talk about the gambling epidemic hiding in plain sight, how sports betting is being engineered to keep people hooked, the difference between Jesus plus something and Jesus alone, why the enemy doesn’t care how he hooks you, and what can happen when you obey a nudge from God. They also discuss fitness without fulfillment, stewarding your body as an act of worship, and The Ship, which is Edwin’s mission to mentor fatherless boys. If you have ever hidden a struggle behind a smile or wondered whether your story can still be redeemed, this conversation is for you.

   Number 5: The Life You’re Chasing Will Never Be Enough - Steve Weatherford, Joby Martin & Denny Thompson

   Pastor Joby Martin and Denny Thompson sit down with Super Bowl champion and former NFL punter Steve Weatherford on this week's episode of Built 4 More. Steve spent ten years in the NFL, won a Super Bowl, made the cover of Men's Health, and became known as the fittest man in professional football. From the outside, he had everything. On the inside, he was addicted to pain pills, trapped in pornography, and standing at a window at two in the morning after the biggest win of his life wondering why he felt nothing at all. Steve shares the story he rarely tells. Being cut in a locker room at twenty five years old and having to ask the groundskeeper for a ride. Hearing a street preacher through a hotel window seventeen floors up saying the exact words he needed. Being abused as a child by a Christian teacher and spending the next twenty four years trying to prove he was enough. And the night in a circus tent in the desert when everything finally broke open. Joby, Denny, and Steve talk about identity, addiction, the lie that achievement will finally fill the hole, confession and healing in marriage, why encouragement makes you a leader, and what it actually looks like to be transformed instead of just informed. If you have ever chased something believing it would finally make you enough, this conversation is for you. 👍 If you enjoyed this episode, don't forget to Like, Subscribe, and turn on notifications so you never miss a new episode of Built 4 More. 🎙️ Listen on Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/built-4-more/id1797411058 🎧 Listen on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/00qd9DnMZJCGPUQbcNJmH1?si=d683e01fdefb4329 FOLLOW BUILT 4 MORE: 🌐 Website: https://built4morepod.com (https://built4morepod.com/) 📸 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/built4morepod/ 👍 Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/built4morepod 🎵 TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@built4morepod 🎥 YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@built4morepod Chapters: 00:00 – Meet Steve Weatherford 01:20 – Cut in the Locker Room 04:50 – The Street Preacher Outside the Window 07:10 – Jacksonville and the Jeep on Beach Boulevard 12:50 – Ten Years in the NFL as an Undrafted Free Agent 13:10 – "Winning the Super Bowl Was the Most Depressing Night of My Life" 15:15 – The Goals He Wrote Down at Fourteen 15:20 – The Abuse That Made Him Question If God Was Real 16:35 – The Night He Won It All and Felt Nothing 17:25 – The Greyhound and the Fake Rabbit 22:30 – Pills, Porn, and the Life Nobody Saw 24:20 – Leaving His Wife and Kids 25:05 – Walking Into Church for the First Time in Twenty Years 28:00 – The Burden Board 29:10 – The Man Who Led Him to Christ at Eleven 32:25 – His Son Gives His Life to Jesus 36:00 – The Deceitfulness of Sin 41:30 – From Competition to Completion 48:40 – Working For Victory vs From Victory 55:35 – Fighting the Devil in the Dark 57:45 – Confession, Marriage, and Healing 1:02:00 – Why Discipline Could Not Save Him 1:05:20 – Identity Comes First 1:13:30 – The Game Film in Heaven 1:26:35 – What Surprises Him Now 1:32:45 – Change Your Inputs 1:40:30 – Get in the Dust of the Right Men 1:44:40 – "I Got This" Is the Most Dangerous Thing a Man Can Say #Built4More #SteveWeatherford #ChristianPodcast #Faith #Identity #Purpose #Addiction #Testimony #NFL
