What happens when sports become America’s most accepted idol?
In this episode of Uncommon Sense in Current Times, I examine how the obsession with winning has replaced integrity, faith and truth — even in Christian culture. From controversial calls in the recent Auburn vs. Georgia football game to deception and hypocrisy in coaching, this episode challenges believers to confront the idolatry of sports head-on.
The question no one wants to ask:
When your team wins through cheating, will you still call it wrong?

📌 In this episode, I discuss:
✅ The Auburn-Georgia game and the ethics of lying to win
✅ How “winning at all costs” reflects a cultural idol
✅ What Eric Liddell teaches us about faith over fame
✅ The difference between strategy, cheating and deception
✅ Why Christians must speak truth — even when their own team benefits
✅ Holding coaches, programs and fans accountable for integrity
✅ How to teach the next generation that God comes before the game

📢 TAKE ACTION:
⚾ Examine your loyalties — do you cheer louder for your team or for truth?
🙏 Speak up for integrity, even when it costs your team a win.
📖 Remember: “It’s more important to teach your kids about God than to teach them how to hit a curveball.”
