About The Podcast
An interest in health and fitness that Brannen Dorman developed as a young kid eventually took him to Wheaton College, where he was a fullback on the football team; to coaching at schools in Florida; and now to Training Think Tank in Alpharetta, Georgia, where he helps athletes and others set fitness performance goals and plan how to achieve them. Though the world of fitness is “not a Christ-centric space,” Brannen has still found openings to talk about his faith, particularly with athletes who find themselves disillusioned by the win-at-all-costs attitude prevalent in sports—or just by modern life in general. Brannen talks with Paul Amos about the intersection between faith and fitness, as well as raising a family of faith, in this week’s podcast.

“How much better to get wisdom rather than gold,” the book of Proverbs tells us, “to get insight rather than silver!” John Walt took that advice to heart as a teenager and sought out a series of mentors who nurtured his talents and shared the wisdom of experience. Along the way, he learned a great deal about maturity, manhood, and the sacrifices we must make to be truly transformed by the Holy Spirit.
How to Break the Cycle of Dysfunction
When Jake met his future wife, he describes the two of them as “two trainwrecks” who endured a long period of dysfunction because they’d simply never learned to relate to each other on a deeper level. Then Jake’s wife found a church, and a church family—and eventually he realized he needed to undertake a spiritual journey of his own if their marriage was to survive.
When You Can’t Fix It: Choosing Hope Anyway
In this conversation with Redeemed director Nate Dewberry, Jay shares what nearly two decades of walking through suffering, disability, marriage, fatherhood, and ministry have taught him about the kind of hope that survives when circumstances don’t change the way we want them to.
