JONATHAN ISAAC | Becoming Bold as Lions
our friends and family, potential loss of a job, and the financial insecurity that comes with it?
That’s exactly what my guest, NBA star Jonathan Isaac, had to deal with when he decided to stand for the National Anthem when all of his teammates took a knee during the height of the Black Lives Matter movement and the George Floyd case. Today, we talk about his decision to do so, why people place labels on and attempt to dehumanize others, facing your fears by walking with Christ, the power of social media and group think, and becoming bold as lions.

My guest today is NBA superstar for the Orlando Magic, Jonathan Isaac. But that’s not really the best way to introduce him (as we talk about in this podcast) because he is more than what he does for a living.
Jonathan was thrust into the cultural limelight when he decided to stand for the National Anthem before a game in 2020 when all of his teammates took a knee. He’s since become a published author of the book, Why I Stand, where he chronicles not only his decision to stand when others didn’t but his path from a scared and timid boy to a confident, courageous man willing to stand by his convictions. He also talks extensively with me today about his transformation to a man of faith and shares how that journey has given him the strength he needs to succeed both on and off the basketball court.
