About The Podcast
Over the course of 18 years as a college football coach, and another decade at the high school level, Patrick Nix—a former standout QB at Auburn—has seen plenty of ups and downs, wins and losses. But the example his father set as a coach, father, and Christian helped teach him that even the setbacks and losses have a purpose and meaning in God’s grand plan for our lives. In this podcast, Patrick discusses his philosophies as a coach and as a parent, the importance of openly expressing one’s faith, and the seminal moment in his teenage years that taught him to always see the bigger picture.

Finding the Strength to Persevere
This week, The Redeemed founder Paul Amos and director Nate Dewberry offer thoughts on the topic of perseverance: How do we do it? Why do we do it? And how do our struggles make us stronger, better people?
Porn, Shame, and the Path to Freedom
Jordan Castille was a skinny kid who was good at gymnastics and a member of his high school’s cheerleading squad—something it wasn’t easy to be in Texas in the late ’90s.
