Today we're partnering with Neuff Athletic for a series of athlete interviews. Tune in as we delve into their stories of experiencing the highs and lows of their track and field journeys as well as who they are away from the sport.

Our first guest is paralympic sprinter Kevin Santos, who's a phenomenal talent from Norfolk. He's had some great success, has an awesome story on how he took a second off his personal best within a year, and is talented across other sports, particularly Jiu-jitsu. This and a whole lot more to be discussed on today's episode. Enjoy!

Dillon runs a page/brand called "A Biblical Life" so in this episode, we're navigating through his journey before and into faith, and all the stories and lessons that have come with that, and all that's lead up to where he is now in his ministry and faith.

Topics cover:

• Mental health and therapy
• Growing a desire to learn deeper about Christianity
• Building consistency in reading scripture
• Dating (and its complications)

What's good family, a banger of an episode we have today and a long one too, so you can tuck into your Sunday dinner listening to this

We brought Andrew, who's a close friend of Dez as well as his training partner, to share his awesome life stories, and talk on his experience of life in England. Having been born and bred in Minnesota (USA), he also spent a portion of his younger years living in Ireland, Spain and at 15, moving to England.

We dive into:

• His track & field journey here
• Earning his academic scholarship to a top private school
• Making sporting history for his school
• Becoming a Christian
• The popularity of track amongst young people

...and a whole lot more!

stay tuned for more episodes coming with awesome topics and guests

Hope all is well with you guys

We're back with an episode that both church-goers, people that serve in church and even those who've never been to church might be able to relate to.

How welcoming is your church?

We all go to different churches, but we all share the same message of hope, and thus this should show in our lives as we share this with others, and invite people to church?

This episode discusses...

• Being a newcomer at church
• Feeling a part of the mission
• Overcoming "Church cliques"

Today Dez gives an insight into his journey, how the last 2 seasons have been, how he's navigated his sporting journey as a Christian, and how his mindset has changed when it comes to competing and having a platform as an athlete.

Sit back, relax, grab a bite, and enjoy this new episode. Have a blessed rest of your day and we'll catch you all next week!

As much as this we strive for financial freedom/stability, to have nice things and be the very best at any and everything we do, we lose sight of other important lessons and blessings that we can also view as us achieving excellence, such as blessing somebody through the work we do, whether it be mundane or exhilarating.

Share with us your thoughts on this topic, and let us know...

1. What does excellence mean to you?
2. How do you go about achieving this daily?
3. What are some stumbling blocks to achieving this?
4. What are some solutions for this? (prayer, accountability with others, fasting etc.)

today we have a very important discussion on secular music and navigating what we listen to as Christians.

we discuss...

• our taste in music and the changes we've experienced
• the two sides to secular music
• there are endless Gospel/Christian bangers and bodies of work out there (check our playlist for some heat!🔥)
• the impact of faith-inspired vs world-inspired music on our faith
• 
  

all this and more, so stay tuned and don't forget to check our playlist, entitled, "VSNS PLAYLIST!"

God bless you all.

Let's talk scripture back again!

We're reflecting on Mark 13:33, and we pray that as you listen, share with others and that we can all be watchful, be alert and guard ourselves and our lives with God's word as we go about our daily lives.

God bless you all.

Let's wrap up the weekend with some reflection on Psalms 34:14, which reminds us to seek peace and pursue it consistently; how so? By departing evil deeds, sins, attitudes etc. This isn't a simple, quick fix process, especially since bad habits can be built from these 'ways', David is referring to in this passage. So when hearing this, be encouraged to discuss with friends or people you trust, ourselves here from the VP, and above all to God about what how to go about starting afresh, and walking down the path to righteousness. It's never easy, but worth it. God bless you all.

we'd like to think we're right on time with some encouragement for the new year, as we're 3 weeks deep...where doubt, fatigue, and inconsistency may creep in, we're here to encourage you with something new we're bringing to the pod. Talking about scripture. The specific focus for now is on the verse of the day (VOTD) that you can find on the Bible App.

And today we dive into Jeremiah 29:13. So please pick up your phone, iPad, or even better your actual Bible, and join us as we discuss how we can truly seek God and what He wants for us, amidst the distractions that we face all the time. God bless you all.

Our second guest for this season, a familiar face too! Mr Michael Robert. We had a very deep chat with him around a year ago, check that out via our Spotify link below.

In today's episode, we brought him on to talk about his year thus far, musically, spiritually, and also his life after graduating from university. A gifted young man, being a messenger with his gift and using it to bless and help others in one way or another. A man that's under the radar, but with the consistent heat he's been dropping will hopefully see more and more big opportunities to come! We hope you enjoy this one.

Stay blessed guys. Catch you in 2 weeks!

Today we're back with an episode we hope makes you reflect and take stock of how you guys also stay healthy. Physically, mentally, and spiritually...also how those 3 areas are linked.

Stay tuned for more guests and insightful episodes coming through next month!

God bless you all.

This was filmed around the beginning of August, so some of our takes, predictions or even events within sports themselves may have happened or changed since, as sport is always quickly unfolding new things after the other.

Do you have any "under-the-radar" sports you may like watching besides the obvious in your country/culture? Do you feel as though more has to be done via marketing/media to give that sport (whatever it may be for you) the recognition it deserves, and if so what actions can be taken?

We're here to make a case for track & field, its attendance issues, how they can be fixed, as well as diving into other sports - our predictions for the Barclays PL this season, and also Dez spreads some hope to his fellow Cleveland Cavs fans, as they managed to win the summer league and are hoping for a good season ahead. All this and more to be discussed, so wherever and whenever you're listening to this, we hope you're entertained, informed and blessed by this episode.

Have a great Sunday all!

Tyler Panton is a sprinter in both the 100m and 200m and has represented his club and country in the sport at 20 years old. He's come on to not only share his story of transitioning from football to track but also to share insight into how he is able to achieve and demand more of himself and have fun at the same time. His messages amongst many in this episode are to express yourself, not take things TOO seriously, and teach others what you've also been taught. We hope to see him succeed in the future and for his elite trademark pose to be part of the worldwide track culture soon 😅 if you don't know what we're on about, be sure to follow his socials, linked below, to follow his journey more!

We hope you've been keeping well during our break. We will return with our conversations but before that, we've been blessed to collaborate with Neuff and have a conversation with Destiny about what he wish he knew before he started sprinting. We hope you take some nuggets from this and apply it to your own journey, whatever stage that is. Feel free to check out Neuff's website below and engage with their and our social media channels below

how are we told to deal with it according to the Bible?

At various points in life, we can be at a crossroads, where there are huge or important decisions to make that affect our future. Sometimes we get caught up in the here and now, that we lose sight of what lies ahead of us. Outside noise, comparison, and our own intrusive thoughts can give way to this.

This episode is an encouragement from us - we're still going through these same changes and tough decisions as you guys are, so through the strength of Christ, we'll all testify of his faithfulness during the trials and testing seasons of our life.

Philippians 4:8

There’s purpose in whatever steps you take and whatever consequences follow. Whether the consequence is painful or peaceful, you’re being moulded to learn from it.

what unintentionally takes priority in your life?

we're here to empathise and encourage you guys to put God as the centre and recognise Him as the source of our strength and joy throughout the ups and downs that life brings. He can pour into us, enabling us to pour into other people and other areas of our lives that need it.

to quote Madison Ryann Ward's song 'Seasons'...

"for anybody out there feeling afraid that you're gonna be stuck in the same old place, seasons ALWAYS change"

be encouraged guys, be still, and know God is in control (Psalms 46:10); enjoy this episode and we'll catch you next week!!

stay blessed guys

“Be still, and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth!”

‭‭Psalms‬ ‭46‬:‭10‬ ‭NKJV‬‬

God is IN CONTROL! 

Jesus had 12 disciples of which he loved, taught and guided.

We are called to make disciples of all men. Everyone can be saved.

“Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all things that I have commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age.” Amen.”

‭‭Matthew‬ ‭28‬:‭19‬-‭20‬ ‭NKJV‬‬

We speak on this and much more! Tune in at 7pm!

God Bless you ALL 💙

we hope you're all well,

we're back this week with another collaborative episode with Neuff Athletic, and we're here to discuss all things sprinting. So if you are, or know anyone who sprints, share this with them and listen in for some awesome tips and guidance from Dez.

the questions addressed today cover the following...

• sprint plans - what they are, what you should include in them and their importance
• sprint events - the rules and how you can prepare for those competition days
• athlete training and development - what it consists of, how you can develop it and the factors affecting it

and there are even a few more golden nuggets and words of encouragement Dez mentions so stay tuned and share this with who it may help out in the future!

you're going to enjoy this one, we promise!

enjoy and God bless you all.

let's dive into today's topic and verse: comparison culture.

is it all negative or can it be beneficial for us?

all this AND MORE!

enjoy lovely people, and have a blessed rest of your Sunday evening.

do we check up with them and have regular conversations?

what are we discussing in those conversations? and how are these conversations shaping our view of ourselves, others and God?

How should we view them according to God?

We want to provide some encouragement this evening in this episode.

Proverbs 3:25-26

25 Have no fear of sudden disaster

or of the ruin that overtakes the wicked,

26 for the Lord will be at your side

and will keep your foot from being snared.

we hope you've had a blessed week thus far -- we're here to get you thinking and/or engaging again as we discuss the idea of idols, whether people or things, and the prevalence we allow them to have in our lives.

hope you enjoy this one!

God bless you all

in this episode, we dive into an aspiring sprinter, Randell Van Den Berg's journey regarding athletics, his faith, and his life in 6th form.

the episode title conveys a lot of what we learned from listening to someone as wise and determined as Randell, which is to be willing to ask questions, be open-minded and ready to learn from different people and in different settings or environments. We are never too good, too skilled or too old to learn new things and keep improving at whatever we do.

we hope this episode blesses you and/or someone you know, so ensure you share this with them too, love.

today we discuss how to find intentionality and purpose in what we do, rekindling interests and passions to use for God to bless others, learning from others and how we endure moments of doubt or stagnation in our creativity and personal lives.

enjoy and God bless you all

love.

hope to kick start your weekend with a very important and engaging episode, joined by Clapton Isaac - a good friend and fellow believer who also is launching his own podcast (The Moments Podcast).

as hosts, we were just all ears this whole episode, so just tap in to all that Clapton has to say, whether you're in the church now or no longer in the church... there's so much encouragement within this message that focuses on...

• personal and collective accountability & vulnerability - how can we show this?
• prioritising Jesus over wanting to be known inside/outside of church (i.e. bringing celeb culture into church)
• how we interact with and bridge the gap between race, gender etc. as a faith
• the impact of a lack of humility and perspective on other people's walk/faith
• the prevalence of cliques and hierarchy within church

and SO MUCH more!

This one's hot man, stick around and be blessed as you tune in. Love

Be blessed as you listen, and share with someone who might need to hear this too. Love.

He's a gospel artist, but we hear all the back stories that lead up to him dropping every selfish desire and following what God has laid on his heart, and reaching people through music and creativity.

this week we had our amazing guest Carmen drop some serious dimes and wise words - to summarise this wonderful episode, we discussed the following things when we spoke with her:

• New age spirituality - what it entails + her own journey through it
• Finding and committing to knowing God
• How her journey of faith has impacted her personal life with her kids
• Coming out of our comfort zones // representing Jesus' love to others in everyday life
• Christian social media content creators

...this list isn't exhaustive but is most of what was covered

We don't have to perform or pretend, we can really dig deep so our hearts can find more peace. We find this in our faith in Jesus.

We share our struggles in this episode. Things we stumbled into and areas in which we felt diminished.

We hope you enjoy listening to this as much as we did recording it. Stay blessed. Keep the faith.

https://twitter.com/visionspod

how can we all strive to achieve greatness, regardless of what we do?

AJ should've let Usyk have his as the deserved victor. But we, as viewers, should've shown grace before bashing a man that's clearly worked his backside off to get in the ring with an immensely skilled fighter for a second time after being schooled the first. Let him be emotional because we all know, some of us may have reacted and behaved the same way. We're all human, is what I'm saying.

Video version is on YouTube.

Stay blessed.

This is all relative but nonetheless our interesting and somewhat relatable takes on...

• eating out vs cooking
• snacking during the day
• recipes good after training days
• when cooking becomes fun

+ more :)

University students and athletes, let us know your experiences over the past year or 2 with food and "trying your best" to be disciplined with your money as well as your gut!

Until next week, God bless you all and enjoy the weekend.

Greg Poleon. Brooklyn born and raised. Came to light up the UK basketball scene. Mission accomplished thus far, with the NBL Player of the Year 20/21 to his name. Still got loads more to give at 24 years of age.

It was a pleasure talking to him and picking his brain a little bit on life in the US vs UK, his basketball journey from a kid until now, the culture in NYC, societal issues in the US and more.

Share this with your friends and anyone who may want to hear this one. We going global you heard!! Visions is going global! (say amen).

God bless guys, and enjoy your weekend.

Think it's doing what it's supposed to? OR do you reckon it's got a bit out of hand and is preventing people from learning and edifying themselves?

Enjoy and have a fruitful weekend.

Screw it man, we arrived late with pods this time around and since this is our first upload of the year, we had to come correct for you guys.

Have an great, prosperous and fulfilling 2022!!

We invited him to discuss his experience with athletics and how his dreams of becoming an athlete led him to creating a platform that not only benefits athletes but also everyone around those athletes: parents, coaches etc. He dropped so many gems, so this recording is a bit longer than usual but we touched on:

• Finding Purpose // Using it To Help Others in Similar Situations

It's been going on for a minute, so new beginnings are necessary.

Who better to be joined by than track athlete and creative (part of The Narrative Podcast and Trak Archives), Rechmial Miller, hailing from South London. This is JUST the first part of our conversation with him, more gems to be dropped over the weekend, so look out for that!

From this episode with Rech, we touched on...

• Brand endorsements for young athletes
• Elite performance + its effects on mental health/life balance
• "Changing the Narrative"
• Examples of standards of greatness

We're gonna need to hear from you guys as well on this topic, so let us know on our socials what you personally think.

We touch on the following;

• Deception of Relationships on Social Media
• Lust or Love?
• Pre-university Break Ups
• What Can Go Down at University? (relationship-wise)

We decided to change a few of the reflect questions to the following:

1. Is trust broken more often in relationships nowadays? Why/why not?
2. Why do some couples call it quits before university?

These questions are also on our Instagram feed, so don't hesitate to engage:

But above all, in today's episode we're paying our respects and remembering the life of the young and talented Luca Skivington, Hasan's close friend. On 6 August 2019, 1 year ago today, Luca was sadly involved in a car crash and passed away.

As well as telling us about his journey within football so far, Hasan shares with us how losing someone very close to him had a impact on his life and how he managed to recover.

Our prayers and love to every single person who was very blessed to know someone like Luca.

May his soul rest in perfect peace.

Really special episode as we're joined by US 110m Hurdler, Daniel Roberts. This episode was really insightful and inspiring for both Dez & JT, and I'm sure you guys will also feel the same way.

Daniel talks about how his university experience and how it helped him, how important God is to him and his gift and a whole lot more. Big thanks to Daniel for joining us on the podcast and sharing his knowledge!

Hope you guys enjoy

God bless
