S5 | Ep 33 - Sports as Ministry (Feat. Brian Smith & Ed Uszynski)
About this episode
The episode discusses how churches can effectively engage with sports culture to foster discipleship and community building.
This week on the Momentum Ministry Partners Podcast, Eric sits down with Brian Smith and Ed Uszynski to talk about a challenge many churches feel but rarely address head-on, how to navigate sports culture in a way that actually builds the Kingdom. In this conversation, this episode explores how pastors and ministry leaders can begin thinking more intentionally about sports as a space for discipleship. From teaching a theology of play to equipping parents to showing up in the stands, Brian and Ed highlight practical ways churches can meet people where they already are and turn everyday moments into ministry opportunities. This conversation will challenge the way you think about sports in your church, encourage you to lead with a new perspective, and give you practical ways to leverage what is already in front of you for the gospel.
