UpperDogs Podcast

Where the book UpperDogs: Exploring Christianity on the Offense, by Sarah Thiessen and Heather Hughes comes to life.

Welcome to the UpperDogs Podcast, where we don’t just talk about faith—we live it out on the frontline. Here, the idea of Christians as underdogs is shattered. We’re called to be bold, to charge ahead with the confidence that we are already champions through Christ. “If God is for us, who can be against us?” (Romans 8:31)—that’s not just a question, it’s our anthem.

Every episode is a rallying cry for those ready to step into the "already-but-not-yet," to live with urgency and anticipation, knowing the story is still unfolding and we hold a vital role. It’s not about “us against them”—it’s the power of LIFE conquering DEATH. Jesus, our Hero, has already triumphed: “But thanks be to God! He gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.” (1 Corinthians 15:57) We’re His sidekicks—partners in a divine adventure as God calls us into intimacy and mission, daring us to help deliver His message to a world longing for truth and hope.
Here, we rise as UpperDog Ambassadors, capes on, ready to bring the Kingdom wherever we go. We’re not afraid of hard questions or spiritual battles. We wield truth with authority, trusting the Spirit alive in us to silence lies and embolden our purpose—living as “more than conquerors through Him who loved us” (Romans 8:37).

Join us at the summit, where God invites us to be active, passionate partners—never passive, never aggressive, but always victorious. We’re here to ignite your faith, equip you for the fight, and remind one another: We are the champions… so let’s claim our advantage and make a difference in the world!
