Bearded Blevins co-hosts this week as we discuss Tiger Woods return to Master’s victory and what it has to do with Taylor’s working out and spiritual life. They also talk about the super long Palm Sunday and Good Friday Gospel readings and how to have a good experience with them instead of focusing on your knees buckling for standing up so long. We connect with some of the characters in the Passion narrative that we’ve never really connected with before.

Our guest this week is Luke Vercollone, a recently retired professional soccer player who is using his platform to share the Gospel message. His ministry, Beast4Christ, calls everyone to be a saint…and has some amazing apparel! Tune is as we talk about his soccer career, how to strive for sainthood and be a Beast for Christ.
