Episode 50: Does playing sports make you holy?

Episode 50! Wow team, we made it.

In this episode I dive deep into the spiritual nature of athletic training by synthesizing the classical Greek ideal of 'virtue' with the ancient Hebrew ideal of 'holiness.'

I make my argument that practicing sports towards this nature can indeed make one holy and provide historical, philosophical, and theological evidence.

This ideal forms the basis of how I practice sports, to become more righteous, to gain moral courage, and to then actualize my values through creative and truthful endeavors (the training and competing)
