The SFC Podcast is the official podcast of Snowboarders + Skiers for Christ – a grassroots missions organization that exists to BRIDGE the ski/snowboard culture to Jesus by partnering with the local Church. In this podcast, we seek to encourage and equip listeners, who love Jesus and are passionate about the mountains, to carry out their God-given calling to BE A LIGHT in the shred culture.
YOU play a special role in the body of Christ (the Church). Did you know that? Or better yet, do you believe that? You have been uniquely designed and gifted by God. But you aren’t meant to keep these gifts to yourself. No. These gifts are meant to be shared. You were given these gifts SO THAT you might go and serve others.
Now, this may not be news to you. You may already know that you were given gifts by God for the purpose of serving others. But that doesn’t mean that serving is always easy, right? Sometimes, serving is hard. We don’t always feel like serving others. And even if we are motivated to serve, we’re not always sure that our serving is actually doing anything. It can often feel like we’re not making much of a difference.
In this episode, Ryan dives into the spiritual discipline of service. He discusses the biblical basis for service, explores the (biblical) motivations behind our service, and encourages us to get to know the REAL needs of the people in our community – so that we can better serve our communities. If you’ve ever struggled with the discipline of service – or just wanted to know more about the discipline of service – then this episode is for you!

Why Start A Podcast?
Podcasts are a great platform to capture stories. We want to capture stories from people all over the world who are on the hill day after day engaging with people. We want to hear how Jesus has both transformed and informed their lives. And we want to hear how Jesus is impacting and changing their communities.
When stories are told well, they can help create direct experiences that inspire us to go out and generate incredible change.
While there are a ton of great resources out there already there are not many podcasts that directly relate to the unique (and niche) calling of ski/snowboard ministry – meeting and ministering to people on the mountain. Our hope is that this podcast will meet that need. We hope that this podcast is a resource for people who see how dark the shred industry can be and pray that it gives them a little bit of hope.
