Listen "Ep. 137 - The Gospel That Crosses Lines: Acts 10-11 and Discipleship in College Athletics ft. Lamar Bell, Rod VanSolkema, Libby VanSolkema, Tryg Veker"
Episode Synopsis
In this episode, we sit down with a local Calvin College football coach Lamar Bell whose journey—from discipling athletes on campus to serving kids at Crossroads —embodies the very heart of ongoing conversion. Using Acts 10 as our backdrop, we explore how true conversion is more than moral improvement or theological precision; it is spiritual rebirth where God’s kingdom breaks into everyday life. Through the stories of Saul, Cornelius, and Peter, we see how God transforms the religious, the powerful, and even seasoned leaders with lingering blind spots. Our conversation with the coach shows how this same transforming work continues today—in locker rooms, in children’s ministry, and across diverse communities.Preacher: Rod VanSolekmaText: Acts 10-11Sermon Link: HERE
