In this powerful conversation, Heath Evans opens up about the highs and lows of a remarkable life shaped by football, adversity, and the transforming grace of Jesus. A former NFL fullback, Heath played alongside legends — including contributing to the New England Patriots’ historic 16–0 regular season with Tom Brady at quarterback and later joining the Super Bowl–winning New Orleans Saints led by Drew Brees. But his story reaches far beyond the field.

Heath shares candidly about navigating the heartbreaking loss of his former teammate, Rudi Johnson, and the painful season that followed false accusations which cost him his broadcasting career with NFL Network. Through it all, he discovered what it means to stand firm in Christ when everything else is shaken.

We talk discipleship, resilience, forgiveness, and the kind of perseverance that only comes from knowing Jesus. Heath reflects on how anchoring his identity in Christ — not in success, reputation, or achievement — carried him through the darkest seasons.
