S07E003, Play the Hand You’re Dealt, Endurance

This week, Steven and Nathan are looking into the idea of making the most of what we have in exercise and in life.

Endurance is your weekly spiritual workout, whether you think of yourself as a beginner, an intermediate, or advanced!

#GoDeeper

Playing the hand that you’re dealt is an expression referring to card games. It means to make the most of one’s circumstances or situation. Steven uses this expression to illustrate how best to use the equipment we have available to us in exercise, as well as the gifts, skills and talents we have in life.

He reads from Romans 12 which challenges us to use our spiritual gifts to the best of our ability. He also reads from 1 Corinthians 9 where Paul urges the Corinthians to be all things to all people. Basically, we need to minister to those around us not those we wish were around us.

#GoDo

Nathan and Steven are thinking about playing the hand you’re dealt, but not just in card games.

They talk about how they’ve done that in their exercise – how they’ve made the most of what equipment and opportunities they have.

And they think about how we can really make the most of whatever circumstances we find ourselves in.

Check out this week’s episode to learn how to make the most of what you have in your Faith and Fitness.
