Episode Summary
What happens when athletic excellence outpaces spiritual maturity? In this powerful conversation, Coach Drake Reed—former professional basketball player, high-school coach, and author—reveals the hidden spiritual battles facing young athletes today.

From locker rooms and college campuses to overseas professional leagues, Drake exposes why many Christian athletes collapse after success, not before it. This episode challenges parents, coaches, and athletes to rethink discipleship, identity, and preparation.

Athletic training alone is not enough. Without spiritual armor, discipline, and practical prayer, talent becomes a liability instead of a calling. If you’re raising, coaching, or are an athlete navigating modern sports culture, this conversation is not optional listening—it’s essential.

Main Discussion Themes
-Identity in Christ vs. identity as an athlete
-Why young athletes need spiritual training before visibility and fame
-The unseen spiritual pressures in college and professional sports
-Practical prayer, protection, and biblical literacy for athletes
-Why parents must disciple earlier than feels comfortable
-Coaching as spiritual shepherding, not just skill development
-Faith, discipline, and stewardship of athletic influence
