David Pollack on Every Day Counts, NFL Injury, and Faith

from Crosswalk Talk: Celebrity Christian Interviews · host Crosswalk Talk: Celebrity Christian Interviews

David Pollack, college football Hall of Famer and former NFL player, shares how life-altering adversity—including a career-ending injury—reshaped his faith, purpose, and perspective. From losing everything he worked for in a single moment to rebuilding with intention, David opens up about how God used hardship to refine his identity, strengthen his family, and deepen his relationship with Christ. Christian resilience, overcoming adversity, and trusting God’s plan: David shares the heart behind his new book Every Day Counts. He talks about how his faith shifted from routine to relationship, what it looks like to slow down and truly listen to God, and how those lessons continue to shape the way he approaches life, purpose, and daily decisions. Highlights How a career-ending NFL injury became a turning point in faith and perspective Moving from transactional faith to a personal relationship with God The biblical principle of “be still” and learning to hear God’s voice Why adversity is inevitable—and how faith shapes your response The “50-40-10 rule” for discipline, growth, and personal excellence Finding purpose after setbacks in career, family, and life transitions The role of gratitude and perspective in navigating loss and change How everyday faith and consistency lead to lasting impact Resources / Links / CTA 🌐 David Pollack website: https://davidpollack.com/ 📱 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/davidpollack47/ 📖 Book: Every Day Counts 🎙️ Podcast: See Ball Get Ball Follow, share, and explore more of Crosswalk Talk For more faith-driven conversations go to lifeaudio.com Discover more Christian podcasts at lifeaudio.com and inquire about advertising opportunities at lifeaudio.com/contact-us.
