Kramer shares how his journey through basketball and coaching led him to discover that true victory isn’t found in success or status, but in surrendering everything to Jesus.We dive into what it means to “fill your cup” daily through prayer, discipline, and faith — and how living a Christ-centered life transforms every area of who we are.If you’ve ever felt spiritually drained or unsure how to balance ambition with devotion, this conversation will help you refocus, refill, and pour yourself out for Christ.Chapters:00:00 Intro✴️ 👉 More on Kramer: kramersoderberg.com#purposelycatholic __________________________________________________________________________✴️ 👉 SUBSCRIBE TO PURPOSELY CATHOLICiTunes: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/purposely-catholic/id1732787702Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/0N50YIMnIbcdsW9RRUPC7D?si=tuX9k80NTzScRUrzg1GV_gYouTube: https://youtube.com/@PurposelyCatholic?sub_confirmation=1✴️ 👉 FOLLOW PURPOSELY CATHOLIChttps://instagram.com/purposelycatholic/http://facebook.com/purposelycatholic/
