Mark Herzlich on the NFL, Cancer and Perseverance (Faith and Justice Series Pt. 3)

The Conversation with Adam Weber

Welcome to part 3 of a very special podcast series we are calling Faith & Justice.

In this series, we’re diving into what it looks like to follow Jesus in a world that is deeply in need of hope, healing, and justice.

We have been partnering with the International Justice Mission, an incredible organization working to end violence, exploitation, and modern-day slavery in some of the darkest corners of the world.

Today, we hear from former NFL linebacker Mark Herzlich. Mark’s story is powerful. He’s battled cancer, walked away from two dream careers in the NFL and sports broadcasting, and is now following God’s call into ministry.

He also opens up about how his wife Danielle’s story of childhood abuse has fueled his own passion for justice and standing up for those who can’t stand up for themselves.

This conversation is real and raw, especially for men of faith who want to live with purpose, courage, and conviction.
