    EndureFaith - Episode 5: Carrying It All at the Same Time
    Jan 16 2026
    In this episode of EndureFaith, Bjørn-Ivar reflects on living with steady physical and mental load, drawing parallels between everyday work, endurance training, and filming movement-based workouts outdoors. He explores how pressure often shows up quietly rather than dramatically, how stress builds when recovery is limited, and why resilience depends on awareness, balance, and timely adjustment. The episode speaks especially to endurance athletes and runners navigating long-term progress, injury prevention, and the challenge of carrying responsibilities without losing steadiness, offering a calm, grounded perspective shaped by faith, experience, and honesty.

  • EndureFaith – Episode 4: When Life Leaves You No Choice but to Hold On

    EndureFaith – Episode 4: When Life Leaves You No Choice but to Hold On
    Jan 9 2026

    Fear has a way of finding us — no matter how capable we become.

    In this deeply personal episode of EndureFaith, I share a true story from the mountains of Lofoten, Norway — a moment suspended between fear and courage, control and surrender, strength and trust.

    Facing a lifelong fear of heights, I found myself clinging to a rope high above the ground, staring down at a church and a graveyard below — holding on, not because I felt brave, but because letting go wasn’t an option.

    This episode explores:

    • What it feels like when fear and courage speak at the same time
    • Why holding on doesn’t mean you’re weak
    • How faith becomes steady when our grip feels tired
    • And what it means to trust God when life places you on a ledge

    If you’re walking through a steep season — overwhelmed, anxious, or simply exhausted — this episode is a reminder that you don’t have to climb the whole mountain today.

    One breath.

    One step.

    One moment at a time — that’s enough.

  • EndureFaith – Episode 3: When a New Start Fails and Life Happens Anyway

    EndureFaith – Episode 3: When a New Start Fails and Life Happens Anyway
    Jan 1 2026

    The start of a new year often carries quiet expectations — fresh energy, clear plans, and the feeling that things should finally move forward.

    But life doesn’t always follow the calendar.

    In this episode of EndureFaith, I reflect on what happens when a carefully planned new beginning is interrupted, and how small, ordinary setbacks can reveal something important about pace, pressure, and resilience.

    Through a personal running story and a delayed New Year project, we explore how mental health is shaped by how we respond when plans change, why slowing down isn’t the same as giving up, and how faith in Jesus offers direction even when the road looks different than expected.

    This is an honest, grounded conversation about learning to listen, adjusting without quitting, and finding steadiness at the start of a year that may already feel different than imagined.
