In this episode of Knowledgecast, Jack has a conversation with Tim Cash, lead pastor of The Cross Church in Loganville, GA. Before stepping into ministry, Tim spent years as a professional baseball player with the Houston Astros and LA Dodgers, followed by over two decades discipling athletes and leaders through Unlimited Potential, Inc.

‍Tim shares stories from the ballfield—striking out Bo Jackson, dropping the ball on his very first pitch—and how those moments became metaphors for life. He reflects on mentoring figures like John Smoltz, Terry Pendleton, and Jeff Foxworthy, and why he ultimately left sports ministry to shepherd a local church.

Together, Jack and Tim explore the four questions that shape every worldview (origin, meaning, morality, destiny), the four longings of the human heart (love, acceptance, worth, and significance/security), and the dangers of comparison in leadership. Tim reminds us that “we were born originals—don’t die a copy.” This is a powerful conversation on identity, calling, and why true success isn’t measured by applause, but by character and faith.
