Is it possible to love sports... too much?

In Episode 3 of Higher Call, Dan Satterfield and Martin Amador discuss the biggest stories from NBA Summer League before diving into an honest conversation about balancing a passion for sports with being present for the people God has placed in our lives.

We also break down the latest FIFA World Cup action, react to England vs. Mexico, USA vs. Belgium, and Cape Verde vs. Argentina, and see whether Martin's surprisingly accurate tournament predictions continue.
