TIMESTAMPS:
00:00 Introduction
05:10 Background on Geremy
06:10 Would you rather fight an ostrich to the death or fight a shark but the worst thing that can happen is you kill the shark or you lose a limb?
13:40 Why do we not walk away from every interaction wondering if or having asked if someone is a Christian? Why is this not at the top of my heart?
14:55 Are you mainly planting seeds?
16:10 Geremy just got married. You’ve been single way longer than you’ve been married. We know that you’re a really godly man now that your relationship had really good boundaries and kept God at the center. Were you always that way?
18:40 You can have the best intentions but when it comes down to action time, what happened? Does the intention disappear?
20:48 Do you feel like that was the moment everything kind of came crashing down on you? Like there’s something about this faith that I claim to have that’s not lining up with the life I’m living?
22:22 Do you feel like being in the NFL there’s a lot of cultural christianity among athletes? Do you think your sexual eithhic and the people you were surrounded by for 5-6 years after college impacted how you viewed the life as a christian?
25:15 Do you feel like when you were single and dating there was this kind of relaxed sexual ethic around sleeping together? AND what changed that for you?
27:48 Did you see this mentality of older christians sort of graduating from certian physical boundaries?
33:05 If you had a young man listening to this and he’s going back and forth with an addictive sin or physical boundaries or finding accountability?
36:40 Whatever thing, activity, or hobby that you love, have you ever wrestled with wondering if that’s an idol for you?
38:45 Is there a possibility that I’m using the gospel as an excuse to do this activity that I just really love?
50:10 What would your advice be to single men, as far as honoring and loving the girl before marriage?
