Infuse Podcast

While running recently I have been listening to the Infuse Podcasts that are produced by Life Action Ministries. Actually, I have only listened to two of these podcasts so far, but both of them were excellent.

• Mark Bearden discusses a Biblical perspective of fear.
• Sammy Tippit speaks about "teaching, calling and training people to pray for their families."

In addition to being availabe on the Life Action website, the Infuse Podcasts are available for free subscription on iTunes as well. Just search for 'infuse podcast' in the iTunes store.

Bay Forrest

Today when I was running, I listened to a Hoops Addict podcast of an interview with Bay Forrest. Bay is a former NBA player. He is going to be speaking at my home church, Wakarusa Missionary, this Sunday, September 14.

If it sounds interesting you might want to download the podcast. The Hoops Addict preview is below.

"I recently had the pleasure of chatting with former NBA player Bay Forrest. While that name may not be familiar to a lot of basketball fans this interview is worth listening to because he had a lot of interesting stories about his basketball career such as turning down UCLA and North Carolina to play for a small Christian college with his brothers and being the first player to turn down a NBA contract to play amateur ball for a year.

• Why he choose Grand Canyon College over big-name schools like UCLA, Duke and North Carolina
  
• Being a three time All-American at Grand Canyon College
  
• What is was like to play win a National Championship with his younger and older brother at Grand Canyon
  
• Why he turned down a contract worth $625,000 by the Kansas City Kings following his junior season
  
• Why he decided to turn down the Seattle Supersonics after they drafted him following his senior season with the #19th overall pick
  
• Being the first player in the history of the NBA to turn down a contract to play with an amateur team.
  
• His experiences playing for Athletes in Action
  
• His experiences playing for the Phoenix Suns
