NBA Star Jonathan Isaac on Anxiety, Faith, and True Success | Jonathan Isaac | Ep. 48

What happens when an NBA athlete trades the world’s definition of success for God’s? Jonathan Isaac, forward for the Orlando Magic, joins Bethany Hamilton and Adam Dirks to share his story of overcoming anxiety, finding true peace in Christ, and standing firm in his faith—even when it meant going against the tide in one of the world’s biggest sports stages.

Jonathan opens up about his early struggles with insecurity, the pressure of performing at the highest level, and how God met him with unconditional love. He talks about marriage, fatherhood, endurance in faith, and what it looks like to root his identity in Christ rather than achievements.

From refusing to compromise his convictions on the court to launching Unitas, a Christian sports apparel company featuring the first NBA signature sneaker with visible Bible verses, Jonathan shows us that living for Jesus is both costly and worth it.
