| 0:00.0 | Hey guys, |
| 0:13.8 | Welcome to the Sports Spectrum Weekly Devotional here on the Sports Spectrum podcast. |
| 0:18.7 | Let's get to our friend Bryce Johnson from unpacking it with today's devotional. |
| 0:25.9 | It's March Madness, and almost everything surrounding the NCAA tournament is so fun and thrilling. |
| 0:33.2 | But I also recognize that there is this underlying fear that threatens players, coaches, and even |

| 1:46.1 | and it causes us to be hesitant as we dwell on worst-case scenarios instead of best-case scenarios. |
| 1:53.6 | Fear affects us mentally, emotionally, and spiritually. So how do we overcome fear? Live fearlessly |
| 2:00.3 | and keep moving on. We must get to the root |
| 2:03.6 | and examine any lies we believe that cause us to fear. We must also acknowledge what we're |
