The untold story of Jonathan Isaac ✝️



The untold story of Jonathan Isaac ✝️

how did Jonathan Isaac go from suffering from severe anxiety to taking the boldest stand of Faith the NBA has ever seen that caused so much controversy that it almost put his career at risk growing up in fora with his mom Jonathan struggled with anxiety and trying to fit in during high school but he was able to work hard that he became the best player in Florida flash forward to getting drafted to the NBA he got everything he dreamed of but since his identity was rooted in pleasing people in basketball he was not at peace so one day a random man approached him and said the only way to be great is that you have to know Jesus so Jonathan wasn’t intrigued and went to an NBA Chapel one day where he heard Luke 6:46 which says why do you call me Lord Lord and do not do what I say Jonathan grew up as a Christian but realized that someone loved him outside of him and that he couldn’t pretend like he knew God so then he started following Christ and understood what God’s love truly meant for us and right when this happened the NBA bubble started he felt wrong to kneel during the national anthem he wanted to stand for what he believed in when he said all lives are supported by the gospel his faith in God shared a message of Hope in Christ leading him to create his Christian brand new nidus

  1. I didn’t know he knew and loved Jesus like that I give so much respect to that dude🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🙏🫡🫡

  2. Why was this so brave?!?! Its been almost 4 years and people still don’t understand the kneeling?!?!? I guarantee you that players were not kneeling because black lives mattered more than any other… they were kneeling because of the systematic racism and un proportionate persecution of black people by cops in the US. This is some weak religious bs propaganda.

  3. I understand representing and standing for your beliefs especially when it comes to social issues but this was during the time where (a certain demographic of people with certain beliefs) were trying to diminish and tune out issues of over policing in black communities. They would claim “all lives matter” in rebuttals to take away the message and impact of the current issue. While the portayal of social issues that become political can be tiresome, the awareness of the issue remains the absolute focal point.

    I would say good for him making a brand and not conforming to peer pressure but it not like those advocating for black lives were belittling other social issues or making themselves the most important. I kinda dislike how long Jonathan Issac held onto this moment of relevancy for something I think he didn’t fully conceptualized. Dude was praised by right leaning individuals because of his actions plus these people’s disapproval against the nba’s support towards “Black Lives Matter” and the over policing on black communities. Was even interviewed by female Ben Shapiro (forgot her name). That let me know that this wasn’t about his support for Christian values but his dislike of the movement.

    Nothing wrong with it, but I don’t think he did anything special and shouldn’t have been gaslit for as long as he was for such a dumbass stance on modern american issues. Jesus has nothing to do with the stance on American issues, whether it be kneeling for the national anthem or worshiping a flag like you’re in a cult.

  4. Nah because what the fuck does God have to do with the national anthem?? I promise you standing in protest of the Black Lives Matter movement has nothing to do with having faith in God and much more to do with being an Uncle Tom grifter

  5. I want to ask you what it is he was standing for. What beliefs exactly was he displaying by protesting against the black lives matter movement?
