74 - Colin Redemer on Competition, Sport, and Christianity
Jan 03, 2023
Chase Davis

In this interview with Colin Redemer (Professor), we discuss a topic that I’ve been curious to explore for most of my life. Competition and sport are major sources of formation and even entertainment. How should Christians think about sports? Do sports inherently require that one embrace a vice to win? What should Christians make of violent competition?


We discuss how some of these concepts play out in the church and theological study by exploring Colin’s role at Davenant. 


Bio - Colin Redemer is an Adjunct Associate Professor at Saint Mary’s College of California and the Vice President of the Davenant Institute. He loves teaching on the intersection between History, Philosophy, Literature, and Christianity.
