  <itunes:subtitle>Oscar welcomes Santonio Hill for a conversation that bridges the worlds of sports, faith, and discipleship. Together, we explore why people passionately identify with teams, wear their colors, defend their loyalty, and find community through sports. But what might happen if that same energy were directed toward a relationship with Jesus Christ and his Church?

Drawing from the examples of elite athletes, Santonio challenges listeners to embrace the discipline, sacrifice, and consistency required for spiritual growth. Through his personal conversion story in Eucharistic Adoration, he reveals how falling in love with God transformed his life and gave him a mission greater than himself.</itunes:subtitle>

  <itunes:author>Ave Maria Press</itunes:author>
  <itunes:subtitle>In this episode, my wife, Pamela Rivera, joins me for a heartfelt conversation about how motherhood changes when our prayer life and interior life begin to deepen. Pam encourages listeners to embrace humility, rediscover the beauty of silence, and make space for the Lord to speak in the quiet moments of Adoration. Sometimes what our souls need most is less noise and more time in God’s presence.

In this conversation, we explore:

Why pride stands in opposition to the feminine genius

How trust in God’s providence grows when we take courageous leaps of faith

Whether marriage is more like a football team or a track team—and why the difference matters

Plus, I sit down with my own mother to ask one simple question: “What was I like as a kid?”</itunes:subtitle>
