Gridiron Gospel: How an NFL Player has Turned the Playing Field into a Mission Field, with Author, Speaker, & Minnesota Vikings Offensive Lineman, Dalton Risner, Ep. 194

Playing professional sports on the biggest stage is the ultimate goal for most athletes. But not for NFL player Dalton Risner. Listen as the Minnesota Vikings offensive lineman shares with us how a humble upbringing in a rural town, surrounded by loving parents and many siblings, drew him closer to Jesus. For Dalton, the real victory is the loving marriage he shares with his wife, Whitney, and the work he pours into the non-profit he created to help kids in need, RisnerUp. Risner established his foundation based on 1 Peter 4:10, which also is tattooed on his forearm: "Each of you should use whatever gift you have received to serve others, as faithful stewards of God's grace in its various forms." Words to live by, indeed! Our prayer is that today’s conversation would remind you that no matter where you are, what you do, or what season you find yourself in, God has a special plan and purpose for your life and He wants to use you right where He has you! Remember, God can do wonders with a willing and obedient heart!
