About this listen
In this episode, we shine a light on a dark side of competitive sports: performance enhancing drugs. From anabolic steroids and human growth hormone (HGH) to EPO (erythropoietin), we break down what these substances are, how they work, and the serious side effects they can cause.
Why do so many athletes turn to PEDs? Whether it’s the pressure to win, the desire to recover faster, or the temptation to stay ahead of the competition, we explore the common motivations behind their use — and why these shortcuts come at a high cost.
As followers of Jesus Christ, we’re called to walk in integrity, humility, and holiness — even in how we train and compete. This episode challenges the temptation of performance-enhancing drugs and reminds us to pursue God’s Kingdom, not the fleeting "success" the world promises. Tune in for more. Let's Go!
