Nate is a Well Rounded Warrior who operates as a pro athlete, adventurer, engineer, and mission worker. He's traveled to over 35 countries on 5 continents, and lived abroad as an expat in Africa and in Norway (Europe). He is "PassioNate" about life. His love for people, for his family, and his faith in Jesus Christ are the reasons why he lives to make a difference in the world through serving in international missions. He's been in Haiti and Uganda working in orphanages, in Cuba and Nicaragua providing safe drinking water, and in the Dominican helping in medical clinics.
Nate is a 7 season American Ninja Warrior competitor, and a 3 time National Finalist. He was rejected in his first 2 years of applying to the show, but finally accepted on the 3rd attept. After fighting through 3 season ending injuries, he had the 2019 Run of the Year, after beating one of the toughest finals courses while battling through severe dehydration from food poisoning and several prior injuries. In college, he suffered a life altering severe burn injury on his legs, which left him in the hospital critical care unit for almost a month. The injury ended his dream of playing American Football, but it deepened his faith in God, and later gave him the perseverance to pursue competing as a ninja warrior athlete.
In 2020, Nate became the Grand Champion of Exatlón USA - world's toughest reality tv athletic competition, which lasted over 7 months in a remote part of the Dominican Republic.
Preacher’s Kid - financial stability
Emotional - hard, easy to close off.
Homeschooled 6th - 9th grade; de-ranked social status by being held back
Not really all in on anything: sports, church
Went all in on work - began learning discipline.
Eating, Sleeping, Weightlifting - 60 lbs in 1st year of college
Financially and physicality would fix this - but it didn’t
So much of who we learn to be as men is “what we do” - place of freedom?
You can be your own God - false
Knowledge v. Tree of life
Learning what God is like through how you experience love from your earthly Father
American Ninja Warrior - Rejection Potential
Playing it Safe - You don’t get exposed. Redefine what success is?
Parallel to Marriage - signing the check at the altar
“All in last year is not enough for this year.”
What got you here won’t get you there...
Being able to celebrate people when you don’t get what you want
