In this episode of The Grindhouse Podcast, host Anthony James sits down with Terrell Washington for a real and unfiltered conversation about prayer in sports.

We get into what prayer actually means for athletes on and off the field. Is it something that truly helps players stay mentally locked in, grounded, and focused under pressure? Or has it become something people lean on when things don’t go their way?

This isn’t surface-level talk. We break down the mindset of athletes, the role of faith in preparation and performance, and how prayer can either build discipline or become a crutch depending on how it’s used.

If you’ve ever wondered how belief, accountability, and performance all connect in sports, this episode is one you don’t want to miss.
