Step up to the podium alongside this gold medal-worthy replay episode as Erin presents a Faith Adjacent deep dive of the Olympics! We’ll go faster, higher, and stronger together as we unpack the ancient origins and modern resurgence of the Olympics, explore the use of athletic metaphors throughout scripture, and hear interviews from actual Olympic gold medalists Laura Wilkinson and Bryan Clay in our most athletic episode yet!
