<![CDATA[Called to Compete]]>Called to Compete is a podcast for college athletes who know their sport is only part of the story.

Hosted by Nate Sallee with the Fellowship of Christian Athletes, this show features real conversations with college athletes and coaches navigating faith, pressure, identity, and purpose in the middle of competition.

Through honest interviews and teaching episodes, we tackle the questions athletes are actually asking—about performance, failure, confidence, leadership, and what it really looks like to compete for Christ.

If you’re a college athlete (or coach) who wants to grow in your faith without stepping away from your sport, this is your huddle.
