Red Letters & Whitetails Podcast

On episode 34, host Steven Crawford dives into a couple different verses (2 Corinthians 10:12 & Luke 18:9-14) that detail the dangers of comparison. We've all heard "comparison is the thief of joy," and that motto has definitely crept into the hunting culture.

On episode 32, host Steven Crawford is joined by fellow Christian and Michigan Outdoorsman Bobby Roop. During the first half of the episode, Steven and Bobby dive into The Book of Galatians; specifically chapter 2, verse 16. 

After spending time in scripture, Bobby and Steven tackle the topic that seemingly every Michigan Deer Hunter has on his or her mind - the upcoming vote the NRC is making the second week of May to decide whether or not Michigan is going to a One Buck Rule, along with some other potential regulation changes. This is a longer episode than usual, but nonetheless, a great conversation you won't want to skip!!

On episode 31, Steven Crawford dives into Matthew 11:28-30 - Finding rest and peace in Christ Jesus.

After the Red Letters portion of the podcast, Steven is joined by cousin and great friend Joe Hanisko as they relive their elk hunt in Montana and go into a deep discussion around the challenges of truly living in the moment during high-intensity moments of your life. There is always so much build up to big hunts, big trips, family events, etc and when we get to the actual event or actual moment, there are many variables as to why it can be challenging to truly relish the moment. This is a conversation I thoroughly enjoyed and I hope you do too!!
