The Brittany Wheeler Show

About Episode

The Hudson Brothers; Derek, Jacen and Grady Hudson grew up playing sports. Their love for the game regardless of the season was their passion. At a young age they were shaped by their love for sports and love for God. Raised by two incredible parents who helped them to see what marriage should look like and how to love like Jesus did despite the world around them. Each of them would face their own challenges as they went off to college and then left home. They had to learn how to transform their love of sports from on the field to off of it. All the while discovering that a relationship with God was in their own hands. Join us as we talk about their upbringing, obstacles they have endured and how God has been alongside each of them the entire time.

• Friendships that are “for you” can exist regardless of that person's beliefs. There is a richness that comes from having friends who walk with Christ. But it doesn’t take away from the friendships where maybe your friend doesn’t have a relationship with him.
• Modeling kindness and having a compassionate approach to interactions with others can have a positive impact on relationships and personal growth. Kindness and compassion can have a profound impact on others, even in small gestures.
• Grady's commitment to excellence regardless of the outcome is what led him to “dressing” one more time during his final season playoffs.
