Fierce Athlete: Incorporating Faith Into Athletics | EWTN News Nightly

About this sermon

One Catholic organization is mixing faith and women's sports. Fierce Athlete uses the teachings of the Catholic Church and the Theology of the Body to help women live up to their athletic potential while keeping their Catholic Faith at the center of all they do. Samantha Kelley, founder and president of Fierce Athlete — as well as a former division one soccer player — joins us to talk more about the origins of Fierce Athlete, some of the challenges that female athletes face today, and the importance of incorporating faith into athletics, and more. Additionally, Kelley also gives her thoughts on the Department of Education's interpretation of Title IX — which also approaches its 50th Anniversary — to also protect "sexual orientation and gender identity". EWTN News Nightly provides the latest news and analysis from a Catholic perspective. Join host Tracy Sabol, our Capitol Hill, White House and Rome Correspondents, as well as many other diverse guests daily, to get the latest from the U.S. and the Vatican on topics regarding our Catholic faith and interests. ------------- EWTN News Nightly airs on EWTN weekdays at 6pm & 9pm ET. ------------ Don't miss an episode of EWTN New Nightly.
