Faith on the Field | Dear Church Ep. #366

In this episode of Dear Church, senior baseball player Collin Helms from Harding University joins the conversation to discuss what it means to live out your faith both on and off the field.
College athletics can bring pressure, competition, distractions, and challenges to a Christian’s character and priorities. This discussion explores how athletes can stay grounded in Christ while competing at a high level, representing their faith publicly, and using sports as an opportunity to influence others for good.
Collin shares insights from his experience in baseball, the lessons sports can teach about discipline and perseverance, and the importance of keeping God first no matter the environment.
