This is a summary of a special episode of the Gospel Addict Podcast, hosted by Greg Bryan and Jim Reske, featuring Kent Chevalier, the chaplain for the Pittsburgh Steelers. Greg Bryan, a self-proclaimed diehard Steelers fan who was born in Pittsburgh, expressed his excitement about learning more about Chevalier's ministryKent Chevalier, the chaplain for the Pittsburgh Steelers, described his path to NFL ministry, which began after 22 years as a local church pastor when tight end Vance McDonald started attending his church, leading to an invitation to serve the team alongside his wife, Erica, through Athletes in Action (AIA). Chevalier’s ministry role involves offering separate Bible studies for players, coaches, and their families, maintaining the "ministry of availability" on the sidelines, and providing a half-hour, gospel-centered chapel service the night before games to "bring church to them". He addresses the intense pressures of fame and wealth by challenging rookies to recognize that the NFL stands for "not for long" (the average career is barely three years) and that their identity must be built on Christ, not the "ball," clicks, or money, reinforcing that they are "human beings," not "human doings". Chevalier initiated the "Deflect the Glory" movement, urging players to bend the knee and deflect praise and worship back to God, with associated apparel sales raising funds for overlooked Pittsburgh ministries. Finally, he is writing a book, Do It Afraid: Jumping into Your God-given Purpose, which includes the LEAP framework (Let God lead, Express your fears, Ask for wisdom, Pray through it) for navigating significant, faith-based decisions.Chevalier’s website is:  www.teamchevalier.com/

Jim Reske teaches the Gospel according to Job, focusing on the second half of the book of Job.This podcast episode delves into the second half of the book of Job (chapters 32-42), focusing on the speeches of Elihu and God, and Job's final response. Jim discusses Job's complex journey through suffering, including his increasing self-vindication and vacillation between religious and irreligious views on suffering. A central theme introduced is contrasting two ways of viewing the Christian life: a "single line" of moral progression based on human effort versus a "double line" representing growth in awareness of God's holiness and one's own sin, with the cross bridging the gap. This latter concept is described as the "fishtail illustration," copyrighted by the speaker, which illustrates how understanding the gospel propels Christian life forward. The speaker initially found the ending of Job challenging, particularly God's seemingly angry "blast" against Job.The key to understanding the latter part of Job, according to the speaker, is the character of Elihu, presented as a prophet who argues that Job's sin lies in his response to suffering and his perception of God, not the suffering itself. Elihu challenges Job's "single line" paradigm and points towards the need for an intercessor and a ransom. Ultimately, the book of Job is understood as highlighting the infinite gap between humanity and God and the necessity of God's suffering (the cross) to fill that gap, rather than human moral performance
