    Finding Christ’s Strength in Weakness | Ian's Story

    In this episode of the Varsity Catholic Podcast, Brady and Ry sit down with Ian to talk about one of the hardest lessons in sports and in life: what happens when weakness, injury, and disappointment force you to confront who you really are. Ian shares his journey through repeated injuries, diabetes, football, lacrosse, and the painful process of letting go of an athletic identity that once defined him. But what looked like defeat became the place where Christ met him most deeply. From losing football, to starting a men’s Bible study, to unexpectedly joining a college lacrosse team late in his college career, Ian’s story is a powerful reminder that God works through weakness — not in spite of it. This is a conversation about surrender, identity, suffering, brotherhood, and discovering that Christ’s strength is often revealed exactly where we feel weakest. In this episode: injury and identity • quitting a sport • daily Mass and spiritual renewal • brotherhood in athletics • Christ’s strength in weakness • how God works through setbacks Hit follow or subscribe so you never miss an episode!
