The Gospel In The Game Sports Podcast

Peace

The Gospel In The Game Season 1 Episode 13

Peace doesn't mean a life without conflict—it's about finding wholeness amidst chaos. We explore how disagreements, even over something as lighthearted as sports, can be transformed into opportunities for growth and understanding. Through the lens of Christian principles, we discuss how faith can serve as an anchor, helping us remain centered when life gets stormy. The journey of new believers often comes with its challenges, but we'll delve into how aligning with spiritual teachings can usher in a peace that surpasses all understanding.

In our journey towards harmony, authenticity, and optimism play crucial roles. We've learned that seeing the world through a compassionate lens not only enriches our lives but also fosters deeper connections with those around us. Drawing inspiration from Romans 12, we'll share stories that emphasize the power of empathy, urging listeners to approach others with openness and understanding. As we navigate both the tumultuous and triumphant moments of life, integrating rest and peace becomes not just an aspiration, but a way of living. Join us as we encourage a lifestyle that embraces harmony in every interaction.

Speaker 2:

not too many things can top the nap, I would 100 agree. You are preaching to the choir absolutely, and you know what.

Speaker 1:

it's funny because you see these memes and they're like you know what. I didn't really appreciate the kindergarten nap or the preschool nap, and now I enjoy them. I think that you know what. I've never had a point in my life where I was like I don't want to nap, yeah, or at least that I can remember, or some of those memes, that all the punishments of kids have now become our goals as adults.

Speaker 2:

Napping is one of them. You don't ever watch movies or spend time on instagram. So I'm sure you haven't seen those, but give me this weird look like what? No, actually I haven't seen that one. Yeah, like going to bed early. As a kid, you're like no, and now, as an adult, you're like what? Yes, I love to go to bed early, you know what I'm still. I'm not quite at that point, yet you're still a night owl I'm still a little bit of a night owl.

Speaker 1:

Okay, yeah, every once in a while, though, I'll be like no, I need that extra few hours.

Speaker 2:

I'm going to sleep a little bit early, but on a regular basis.

Speaker 1:

I'm like you know what? No, I'll stay up a little bit later. I can do this and that.

Speaker 2:

If all of the things in my life have been accomplished and there's an opportunity to go to bed at 10, I'm jumping right into it. And I'm still going to sleep till the same time in the morning, really, but is I?

Speaker 1:

just love sleeping. See, I've I've associated naps with a afternoon thing, right, and, and I think snaps are not always the same for everyone. Sure, some people it's a post meal, sometimes it's a I wake up in the morning, I like going back to bed. They would even consider that kind of a nap.

Speaker 2:

Were you the one that was telling me that you can do a 15 minute nap or a 30 minute power nap, and it literally like 16 minutes yeah.

Speaker 1:

Literally 16 minutes Literally. It's a matter of just setting my timer for 16 minutes.

Speaker 2:

give myself a minute or so to fall asleep and then wake up and I'm like okay, let's go and the power switches out. Yep, you can do that. What's standing up in a dinner? You can do that. You know what I have yet? To fall asleep Sitting in your vehicle?

Speaker 1:

I have, yet I can do it in vehicle. Okay, with it running. With you driving, no, not while it's moving. Actually you know what that? That would be one of the ways that it's dependent on the driver.

Speaker 2:

For sure. I mean, baseball is a great way for me to fall asleep. But no disrespect to Jake Capri, it's a great episode from the vault in episode number 12. Episode number 13,. This is about rest. Peace and rest kind of go hand in hand. We'll call it peace, but naps I try to take them daily and my dad growing up. By the way, dave, you're Dan If you hadn't listened to one of our episodes yet. Welcome to Gospel in the Game podcast, episode 13. My dad, after lunch or dinner, would love naps and I now, on Sundays, take a nap and my friends know If there's anything going on. Sunday at 2.30, dave is out. It doesn't matter what it is, they just exclude me from it. Sunday afternoon, it's nap time. Sunday afternoon, nap time, what it is, they just they just exclude me from.

Speaker 1:

Sunday afternoon it's nap time. Sunday afternoon nap time. I'm right with you, and in fact my wife is even at the point where she even tells people say oh yeah, no, we can do that, but probably you'll have to wait until Daniel wakes up from his nap.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, yeah, like you have a child named Dan Well, sort of my husband, and it's it's integral what I found. You know we just I just finished a large event over the last week and I worked the last two Sundays so I didn't get my afternoon nap. I see it on Monday. I'm still excessively tired from the weekend because my body hasn't had a chance to regroup. So, um, to go along with rest, uh, the the concept of today's episode. We took a bit of a pivot when you and I were looking at the topic and the way it was going to break down. We talked about rest and then we kind of took a bit of a kind of a turned a little bit of a corner to peace Cause.

Speaker 1:

I think naps as an episode title just doesn't. Yeah, yeah.

Speaker 2:

I'm sure it would actually grab a lot of people. Yeah, if we call this episode naps.

Speaker 1:

Yes, that's my favorite thing. I'm definitely definitely gonna sleep during this episode for sure.

Speaker 2:

So we'll talk about baseball.

Speaker 1:

We'll talk about baseball buddy, like you know what, baseball's been great lately.

Speaker 2:

It really has you know what the best time is for baseball october 31st. Wow, you're so cruel, you know, what is it is? It is it the World Series now?

Speaker 1:

Okay, before we move on to peaks, we have to go to war a little bit, tell me why do you have such a disdain for baseball?

Speaker 2:

You're pointing Dr Phil here today, aren't you Is?

Speaker 1:

it because the Montreal Expos don't exist anymore.

Speaker 2:

Well, maybe not, no, well, I mean, I did enjoy watching it, okay, okay.

Speaker 1:

Wait, wait, wait. No, don't pause there. So there was a point where you liked baseball.

Speaker 2:

I did. I would say I liked it, but I enjoyed watching it. I wouldn't call liking it Okay. It wouldn't be something that I would plan my schedule to go man the Jays tonight. I gotta be home to watch it. Okay, I'm like monday night football, or you know so there's other sports or people you know sleeping in the sidewalk things that I would rather watch than baseball but you, but you.

Speaker 1:

But you talk as if like it's not something that you wouldn't watch, but that you like okay, here's all right.

Speaker 2:

so it's a good time and we're talking about peace to bring the peace into this topic. So here's my opinions on baseball. I think it takes a lot of talent to play because you play what? 160 games in a season, yeah, you play games what? Three days in a row, or five, yep. There are no other sports that do that. Football doesn't, yeah. Hockey, yes, but in the NHL you can't play. You don't play two games in a day On a rain. Delay game, oh, yeah, let's play tomorrow. Let's just double header, play back to back. Let's play both games. Football it takes a week. Hockey, not a chance. So there's the. You know, I know there's a lot of great athletes out there in baseball. I'm not saying they're not athletes. I'm not saying they're not athletes, yeah. I'm just saying that it's. It's a. It's a different type of athlete. Right, you can. You can stand in the field essentially as an outfielder, not have the ball hit your way for an entire game.

Speaker 1:

No, everyone touches it, at least once.

Speaker 2:

Well, of course, when they throw it around and hey, here we go, someone who was a base hit. Okay, we'll rip it around the field. You touched it, congratulations, you touched the ball. But there are no other sports football, hockey, basketball that you don't. If you're out there, you're playing, yeah, right, like if you're on the bench, I get it, but you're on the field and you're not playing. You're literally just standing there. Line drive to right field, right field, center field, right field, center field, right field, ground, ball, center, left field's. Like I'm good, $190 million a year. Here's me standing right here, and the salaries are higher than any other sport. They're way inflated, way inflated, way inflated. So you have guys who are literally not doing anything standing in the field. Yes, you play 160 games, but out of those 160 games, if you're not, the ball doesn't come your way at all. Compared to football, compared to hockey, compared to basketball, I don't know. It's just one of those things that I've. I felt like I just, I just can't.

Speaker 1:

Okay. So if a wide receiver gets one catch per game and gets one toss to them, per game because they're not the best of the best, or maybe the teams are running game. Does that make it any less of a sport?

Speaker 2:

Absolutely not. Not, because if you watch football, here's what the wide receivers are doing when the play's not coming to them Blocking right, they're engaging contact right away. They're running. They're actually running, as opposed to an outfielder who's standing doing nothing.

Speaker 1:

I know, but what the hit is to him.

Speaker 2:

He moves an incredible distance At once In a short period of time Going from the batter's box all the way out to the field and standing there he moves an incredible distance At once, going from the batter's box all the way out to the field and standing there. That's a long way to go.

Speaker 1:

If you watch the science behind baseball, not only like they. Okay, I'll give you two pictures.

Speaker 2:

Okay, One time there was this is not at all in the script for today. No, it's not Okay.

Speaker 1:

So if you took a, center fielder he has to move in a certain angle in order to get there at the shortest distance of the ball and process that and move at full, full pace. Doing it, yeah, and it takes an incredible reaction time.

Speaker 2:

It does and processing to do it. Oh, and I'm not.

Speaker 1:

So he's not doing it every play.

Speaker 2:

I'm not disregarding that Devon White growing up was probably Former.

Speaker 1:

Ebony Trapper Devon White.

Speaker 2:

Was he Okay, probably one of the greatest of all time at doing that. As soon as the ball came off the bat, they'd have footage of him taking four steps forward, one back and waiting for three seconds. Bang it's in his glove. How on planet earth does one figure that out? But you're a pro athlete, right? So again, comparing the contact of football, the preparation of football, the rigors of football, the athleticism of basketball, even soccer, it takes an incredible amount of cardio, as you and I both know. Cardio not at the top of our list. Hockey we very well know hockey. How complicated that is. Baseball you can have guys like Cecil Fielder who clearly are not in very good shape. They're just out there to hit a ball. They're way overweight Now you're dating yourself.

Speaker 1:

Cecil Fielder could not play in today's game.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, well, maybe, but you literally have a position called designated hitter, so you're not an athlete enough to play the game. Your job is to hit the ball, so you don't play in the other positions. Like they don't have a position in hockey called designated shooter Okay, they were in a power play. You can't skate, so you stand there on an Island in front of the net and just tip box.

Speaker 1:

Only a certain portion of the league has designated, anyway. But anyway, yeah, I get I of the league it has designated anyway. But anyway, yeah, I know I get, I know american national, but some of them don't.

Speaker 2:

The pitchers have to hit the national. I get that so, but anyway, that's just, and I and again, I'm not disrespecting the game of baseball. There are tremendous athletes out there that do incredible things, that have overcome great adversity, and they're professional athletes. I just, in my opinion, when I see guys making six, seven, eight times what a hockey player does, based on because they play 160 games at a year, I'm doing the air quotes. That is where I have a problem.

Speaker 1:

So question for you.

Speaker 2:

We're now what, 25 minutes into the episode. We've got through none of our itinerary.

Speaker 1:

Have you watched a major league baseball game live?

Speaker 2:

Yes, actually, I saw Roger Clemens pitch.

Speaker 1:

Really I did yeah. The rocket.

Speaker 2:

Totally by fluke, what so? I was in Minneapolis for SummerSlam 99, way back in the day, because I was a wrestling fan years ago, which is going to be another episode, whether that is a sport or not. I would say wrestling is more of a sport than baseball. Oh my goodness, we just lost 18 minutes.

Speaker 2:

I'm trying to find something not hard to throw at you. So we just decided you know what we got. Some time we're there day early, let's go catch a baseball game. And it was the Yankees were in town playing the Twins and, sure enough, end of his career. I think it was in his last year. The second last year was 99. So those of you baseball trivia people out there know the numbers. So yeah're got out there watch roger clemens pitch. I thought that was kind of cool.

Speaker 2:

And then, when I was dating a girl in seattle back in 2012, I went to a mariners game. And did I ever go to a blue jays game? I'm not sure, but those are the two games I've been to. I left in the middle of mariners game because we're both like this is boring. Then josh johnson was was playing that game as well. Is that his name? The guy was like the big, the Christian guy, randy Johnson. No, not Randy Johnson, the outfielder, the one who had. There was a lot of hoopla around his faith and he was so outspoken about his faith. He played for the Texas Rangers and I forget the guy's name Something. Johnson. You give me that deer in headlights. Look when I'm talking about movies, that same same. Look you look at me with you're like what? I think it was josh johnson. I might have been his name, some johnson guy without starting a war.

Speaker 1:

I'm trying, I'm trying to get this episode is about peace okay, so yeah, so say for example, you have this disagreement where you have a friend that you're really close with.

Speaker 1:

We need some input here. Listeners, listeners. If you have a close friend, maybe even a relative, that thinks that, like one of the greatest sports of all time, football Is not a sport. Instead, would like talk about how what a great dart game he saw on the local sport network, yeah, darts is good and and, oh man, I can't even like oh. Okay, so let's bring this back to just can I bring it back for us?

Speaker 2:

yeah, do it please, yeah, thank you, let me, let me bring it, let me bring it back and you can call text jay caprese, after this is out, and apologize to him for this great co-host you have on your show jacob, if you're at a local pool and you see some guy in the hot tub and he has just the idea to bring your binoculars and then wave to them and then just and just sit down and talk with him and just and just calm his heart I probably won't be at a pool.

Speaker 2:

I'll tell you no that's true.

Speaker 1:

Okay, okay, go on go ahead bring this around the.

Speaker 2:

The concept behind this episode, when we were talking about it originally, was called rest, just about. You know some stressful things. Or episode 11 was pretty heavy talking about trauma. So you know, I love the concept surrounding peace because if you look at the word peace the way it's talked about in the Bible, it means completion. It doesn't just mean rest, it doesn't just mean everything's fine, it means completion. It doesn't just mean rest, it doesn't just mean everything's fine, it means completion. Everything is whole.

Speaker 2:

So there are areas, I think, in our lives that can have conflict or they can have difficulty, but how do we bring those things to come to a spot where there's peace? So, whether that be, you're in a situation with someone whose personality you might not jive with at work, or maybe on the team, or you're in a situation where you've had a conflict with a coworker, there's been a disaster in your family, there's been a fight, something like that, how can you bring peace? And the word of God says in Matthew 11, verse 28, come to me all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. So and again, the rest that we talked about isn't necessarily I will give you the ability to go take a nap and wake up and feel like you've got enough. The Lord wants to bring everything to completion, to peace, to wholeness, so you'll feel at full capacity.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, and I I think it's. Thank you for bringing it back. First of all, lots of times it's easy to be weary, isn't it?

Speaker 2:

Yeah.

Speaker 1:

It's really easy to be weary and whether you're involved in sports or you're or try sitting through all 160, some baseball games of your team. It can be atrocious, it can be frustrating, it can be exhausting. Even though you're not playing, you can wish the best for someone. Sure, even though you're not playing, you can wish the best for someone, but it can be exhausting watching someone struggle in life, let alone sport, and so I think the heart of this is there's an opportunity for peace even in the midst of chaos.

Speaker 2:

And what does chaos look like in your life? It could look like a lot of things. I can think of one thing that you know. For me personally, navigating through over the last couple of years, um, you know and then again we're just kind of calling an audible on this is we've really abandoned a lot of the things that we've gone on the sheet with today. But, um, yeah, I don't I don't necessarily have an issue with where we're going with this, but, like, the thing that in my life that I've really tried to gravitate to is, as we change as people, sometimes our surroundings aren't willing to change with us.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, so, and if you are maybe listening to this and you're a recent new believer in Jesus and you're starting to see things change in your life, where you may have come from a background in your life where things are chaotic, you don't get a lot of rest, there's not a lot of peace. You've had personalities in your family and maybe in your social life that are a lot of conflict, a lot of difficulty, and now you're in Christ and you personally are receiving joy and peace. Those around you are saying you're changing. This isn't good. Yeah, there's something different about you. Yeah, yeah, why are you different? I want that version of you. So they try to throw things at you, to make things more chaotic, to disrupt the progress, and you feel like everything is falling apart around you.

Speaker 2:

The one thing in my life that I've seen, the more I gravitate to the Lord and our pastor just talked about this last week that you know, if you are out of alignment, you'll become either bitter or you'll become anxious. So you'll either, you know, look at the life through a negative lens, or you'll look at life through an anxious lens, as in I'm out of control. Why can't I control things? But if we're in peace, if everything that we're looking at our lens through is through Scripture, through the Lord, he'll give us that completion, that peace, even amidst through all of the craziness.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, and the Bible actually describes it as the peace that passes understanding. Yeah, and the Bible actually describes it as the peace that passes understanding. Yeah, and it's really it. It cannot be understood by someone who doesn't have faith in God. It seems like like you're, you're almost crazy to be so relaxed. How come you're so chill in this? How come, uh, how come this doesn't phase you? How come you're not so angry? How come you didn't respond angry at that guy, or like don't you realize what that person did? And like why are you still talking to them? And so I think you're right.

Speaker 1:

It's like it is a total 180 from what the world wants you to respond with. And you even mentioned too, like your pastor, and for those of you that maybe don't attend a church or anything like and you've heard that term, really it means teacher, and it's someone who and it's the pastor comes from in scripture, the New Testament, of the qualities of someone who's a leader, elder, bishop, and one of it is pastoral care in the care of others. But they are also usually teaching from God's word, and I think it's important that it's like you received a message of encouragement, ultimately from scripture in order to help lead you or guide you or to give you input on how to live life, and really that's what God does through his word and through people, and as Christians, as people who follow Christ. Ultimately, our example of that is Christ.

Speaker 2:

Even in the midst of chaos.

Speaker 1:

It's um it's. He was the bringer of peace. He's the Prince of Peace.

Speaker 2:

Yeah. So maybe you've um joined a team recently, you've come to a different team and and and you know they sit the room is a mess. Maybe that you're having issues with your coach, right, and how do you navigate through those situations? Or maybe your life personally, your safe spot is the rink or the field and you get back home and everything's chaotic. How do you navigate through that? How do you establish peace through that?

Speaker 2:

I really feel an important component to that is, you know Ling. You know scripture says seek first his kingdom and his righteousness and all those other things will be given to you. So you know those other things preceding that are the ability to have completion, peace, rest, all the things that you desire, the fulfillment, you know, taking care of your needs that's what it says, actually the passage that there are needs that we have daily as people. Well, those things will be taken care of if you seek first his kingdom. So, you know, I can think of that as getting back to the personal reflection. You know, in my life for years there, when things got tense, I became erratic and.

Speaker 2:

I became difficult and frustrated. So then people in my life that I wanted around me wouldn't often stay around me because they're like well, I don't want that for my life, so I don't want you around, right. And then, the more I started to change and lean into God's word and really started to look in the mirror and go, wow, okay, I'm like these areas of my life that have to change. I'm starting to see the people that I was like back then who are going. Well, now you're like you've changed. Yeah, so you know, either they change or they fade away.

Speaker 1:

Well, and sometimes, depending on where you're reading in the Bible, sometimes you can see yourself in so many attributes of the characters that are in there, say well, this guy's really stubborn. I of the characters that are in there, say well, this guy's really stubborn. I was like, wait a second. There's been times where I've been stubborn. This guy's responding in anger Okay well, this guy's trying to do things on his own. And it's like sometimes it's the simplest examples that it's like, wow, this is like holding up a mirror in front of me saying, okay, wow, this is really relatable. Even though it was written so many years ago, it's timeless.

Speaker 2:

And I think that's one of the encouraging things, even from what you said was how, when you've seen yourself and what you look like amongst yourself, and it's like, oh, maybe that's the reason why that happened, that way and it's a good, I guess you'd say it's a good way to be re-centered, uh, on the lord, when all of a sudden, that focus is not necessarily on ourselves, but we're starting to realize who our identity is without christ, sure, yeah, so to bring that all together from where we kind of started what we talked about now, and having the peace and the completion and the you know not really off the tracks for the baseball thing, because I think that can all make sense, because maybe you have an opinion on something. Hey, us elections are coming up soon. There's going to be a lot of differing opinions out there. How do you navigate those types of conversations without becoming erratic, without you know?

Speaker 2:

I came through a three, four years ago, a very opinionated central time in the world where things were, you know, pretty polarizing. How can we as christians and if you're not a christian listening to this, you know encouraging you to pursue the heart of god where peace is really? And again, peace doesn't mean there's no conflict, peace just means having completion and wholeness through when things are chaotic. Yeah, so if you're in the middle of your season, you're a one 10, the room is falling apart. What's your role as a believer in that? Modeling peace through conflict, going you know what, guys, it's going to be okay.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, and is a. Let's take that coin, Just flip it over. All of a sudden you're 10 and oh yeah and you're putting up the best batting average of your life.

Speaker 2:

Sure.

Speaker 1:

Okay, you're batting close to 400 as a baseball player.

Speaker 2:

That's a T-ball reference, right, so don't get what I'm saying, right Even during good times, everything seems.

Speaker 1:

Everything seems like it's working out and going your way and other things. Are you patting yourself on the back Right? Are you finding ways to just say, hey, listen, guys, like we have to maintain this piece now and we have to learn how to build and how to safeguard and how to maintain that piece and keep war? Put the walls up or whatever defense systems, defense mechanisms up to know how to deal with the conflict that is coming?

Speaker 2:

Yeah, it will come. It will come and I love what you said. The thing that I think we don't want to miss in this show if there's a piece that I really a portion of the show that I really think you should grab, it's this during the chaos, during the conflict, how do you have so much peace? That should be the goal for everybody, regardless of the situation. How are you handling yourself so well? Well, not that you can fake it, but you the goal.

Speaker 2:

Sometimes you fake it till you make it, but the goal really being no, like the Lord is working through me to the point that I'm really okay. Yeah, I'm not just smiling that I'm getting into my car and I'm going. Things are going nuts. Yeah, you might feel those moments. There might be times that you have to put that on as whether you're a father or a coach, and you lose 50, nothing, and you know you just lost 10 000 in sticks, maybe because you broke nine of them that day. But there are times you might melt down, but having the ability just to become peaceful through that.

Speaker 1:

Well, and I think I'm going to go back to that quote that you said fake it till you make it. I don't believe in the fake it till you make it, but I think the heart of what you said was we have to be real, and it doesn't always mean like when times suck, oh, this is awful, this is terrible, this is. Then you're just yeah, you're oh, yeah, well, I'm just being real, right, well, no, no, no, no it's. It's also taking the side of optimism and it's also, at the same time, not deflating the viewpoint of a pessimist either, where it's like oh, I'm, I'm a perpetual optimist, I really am. Um, at the same time, I do think I have a realistic look at a lot of things, but I like to see the best in things and the best of people at the same time, I know people that are very close to me that are like why would you even talk to that person?

Speaker 1:

Do you realize that they did this and that and this and that? And my response is well, if I'm ever going to have a relationship with them and ever have the hope of them listening to some truth, I have to be able to come at them on some level. I'll even give you an example. There's a certain individual in a certain place.

Speaker 1:

I'm not going to get specific or details or anything like that that has really gotten on the nerves of several people, and even to the point where this person is like extremely awkward and making people uncomfortable not only with conversation but also with the way they're acting. And this past weekend I've tried my best to come and just meet the person, because I've never even known anything more than their name, and so I sat down next to them and, unbeknownst to me, this person had suffered extreme loss and to the point where their best friend had killed themselves.

Speaker 2:

Oh boy.

Speaker 1:

And he discovered the person that was dead and struggled with depression and was medicated that made them act in a certain way.

Speaker 2:

Sure.

Speaker 1:

And I thought, oh wow, I never even thought of it that way here. If I would have just taken what other people's thoughts were towards him, that he acts weird, without coming to him and having a conversation just as a normal level, just to learn about him a little more, I never would have learned some information that made me realize why the person acted a certain way. So when I told them about it, the response was whoa okay interesting. And I think that you go back to the verse even that we're talking about come to me, you all who are burdened, weary and burdened. The rest that's offered is for everyone, and it's like there's no exception to this. We're the exception. We might think to ourselves okay, well, this person is weird, we can't include them in our circle. No, I'm not asking you to include them in our circle, it's just a matter of maybe we need to see them through a different lens.

Speaker 2:

I want to leave us with a verse, and it's really applicable to what you're talking about. Romans 12 says if possible, so far as it depends on you, be at peace with all people, live peaceably with all men is another translation of that.
