Athlete Disciples

Seek First the Kingdom (Matthew 6:33) | Faith & Football with Colton Boomer

Episode Summary

In this episode of the Athlete Disciples Podcast, I sit down with Colton Boomer — college football player, husband, and self-proclaimed apprentice of Jesus Christ. We dive into Matthew 6:33-34 and talk about what it truly means to “seek first the Kingdom of God” — not just in church, but in the locker room, on the field, in marriage, and in everyday life. Colton shares: • His transformation from vaping and partying in middle school to giving his life to Christ in high school • The spiritual warfare he experienced during his football career • How snapping his ankle became a turning point in his faith • What it looks like to compete with Christ at the center • Why simple obedience beats religious performance • How faith changes team culture and leadership This isn’t polished religion. It’s real discipleship. Real struggles. Real growth. If you’re an athlete trying to follow Jesus in a competitive world — this one’s for you. “Seek first the Kingdom… and all these things will be added to you.” – Matthew 6:33
