In this episode, we break down the life of Eric Liddell, the Olympic champion who refused to run on Sunday—and then broke a world record in a race he never trained for. But the story doesn't end with gold medals. Eric walked away from fame to become a missionary in China, where he spent twenty years serving before dying in a Japanese internment camp. His story shows us what it looks like when conviction costs everything and following Jesus demands clear priorities, radical obedience, and sacrificial love.
With every episode, we're solving real-life struggles by studying ordinary people who became legends in the faith when they risked everything for the gospel. Their stories give us practical ideas on how to deal with issues like fear, doubt, compromise, and how to live with unshakable conviction. New episodes drop every other Thursday.
