In the Olympics, every tribe and tongue is gathered in one place for one purpose – sports! But I can’t help but think about God’s promise that there will come a day when every tribe and tongue will gather for one purpose – Christ!

Pastor and former professional athlete, Jesse Bradley joins us to consider how, as people of faith, we can respond to the opening ceremonies of the Olympics in a way that demonstrates the truth and love that Christ demonstrated for us.

Olympic athletes are under incredible pressure to perform - not just in their sport but also in life. The cameras are relentless, capturing otherwise private moments. We can pray for Christian athletes to be strong in their identity in Christ and to show the world the Jesus who so loves them.

How Olympic athletes practice discipline and pursue excellence inspires us to not be complacent Christians but to press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called us heavenward in Christ Jesus.
