In this episode, Anthony Irby Jr. shares his journey from growing up in Madison, Wisconsin, to chasing college basketball dreams and ultimately finding purpose through faith and family. He opens up about overcoming challenges in marriage and other challenges, including hitting rock bottom—“all cashed out and no place to go”—and a pivotal moment inspired by a T.D. Jakes sermon that ignited his relationship with God. Now, he shares a powerful message: "Love and forgive people, and let God use you to be an answer to someone’s prayer." This story is for anyone navigating their own journey of hope, resilience, and redemption.
