This week on "Inside the Chapel," Houston Rockets chaplain Malcolm Marshall shares a message on the importance of really knowing the essentials of the faith as a means to safeguard against deception. He challenges those in the locker room to become "a student of your faith." While knowing what you believe is important, it's essential that we know why we believe it, he says.

"When you're a student of your faith, you're in a position to see the deficits of His church and its people and not be swayed by that," he says. "Most deception occurs when a little bit of error is mixed with enough truth to make it believable."

"Inside the Chapel" is part of the Sports Spectrum Podcast Network.
