Wow, I didn't know that Porter Jr. was a Christian. I always admired his natural offensive talent. He's now become one of my favorite players. I'm gonna be rooting hard for him. Believers need to pray that he doesn't turn away from the faith into the world, living the nba life.

Key points Humbleness is key 🔑 Know your vices 📱 Staying rooted in God 🙏🏽 Relationship over Religion ( Major 🔑 ) Be yourself &Guard your heart ✨ Obedience is better than sacrifice ! Our perception of the faith is what shapes our walk and understanding of him and how he loves us. (“ Really love God and that will change what you wanna do”) I like that one.

In an age where most children want to rappers and professional basketball players are only exposed to what they see... the fame and glory. We need more Christians doing stuff like this 🙌🏽!! Thank you for stepping out of the NBA spotlight to give God the spotlight. I hope and pray God gives you strength to continue fighting the good fight.

Michael Porter Jr is a true Christian. A truth seeker. Someone who questions things and is not brainwashed by the media. I love that about him. Just a really good person. God will always bless you. Keep up with the faith. You’re one of my favorite basketball players in the NBA and one of my favorites as a human. I wish I can meet you one day!

Yo MPJ I never knew you were Christian bro, if I were to know this back in 2020 when the nuggets was playing in the bubble against the lakers in the WCF I would’ve been cheering for your team 😂💪🏻. Anyways my brother I pray you get back healthy in Jesus name and I also pray that you share your faith throughout the league as you are called to preach the gospel and share your testimony of what Jesus has done for you. My name is Abraham nice to meet you bro. Keep up your faith in Jesus who is the way the truth and the life. 💪🏻🙏🏻

YEAAAA Mike. and as a nugget fan and a christian i need more of this

Wow this nurtured my spirit. “How close am I to God” in certain situations. Going to be using that in conversations. I feel the wisdom & humility. SO GOOD 🙌🏽

Man not even 2 minutes in and I get a whole sermon! “You don’t wake up humble. You have to chase humility.” 🤭😮👏🏾

I am very proud of this. I really hope the younger generation of athletes listen closely to your channel. You can do it, MPjr. Remember your vows before the Lord.

Man, I'm so impressed with this conversation. I've sent this around to as many young athletes that I can. My sons are watching it now. THANK YOU for having such an open an honest conversation. Don't ever back down from your faith....

bro I'm from Brazil, I started to like basketball because of you, you are my inspiration of the day, thank you bro and continue being this amazing player and person you are.

Wow! That was such a impactful view of Christianity and how to live in freedom! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Mike is really a HOOPER not just a basketball player. I need more of this!!

Amazing to have Lecrae on the podcast

MPJ don’t ever stop this my new favorite podcast

When you spend so much time on the truth, you don’t care for the lies…… Love God with all your heart and your desires change!!!

Been waitin on this! YEAH MIKE

Craeeeeee and MPJ!!!! Dope link up

WOW WOW WOW! I literally love this episode. God bless you so much guys!

First off, I'm LOVING this! Starting off with Lecrae and talking about God hit in a whole other way and really led off with how this is going! 2 well known pro's sitting and having an open conversation about the Lord 🙌🙌🙌 Second, thank you for bringing up the drinking and smoking aspect. I have many conversations with people about this and it was nice to hear these perspectives 🙏🙏 Can't wait for the next!

When Lecrae gave the analogy about bringing food on the boat when it’s already paid for……🤯🤯🤯I felt that

Love this conversation I’m to see that young people still want to know Christ

Blessed by this. Thank you for sharing. One small nugget, please make sure to examine the religiosity of the world around us. Western culture possesses competing forms dead religion that may not acknowledge God at all. Rest in the King, bro. Congrats on the ring.

Thanks Mike for sharing some of your faith. I know as an NBA player it's tough to be vocal about these things. Much love man.

I'm a Christian too, I've admired you Mike since you started playing on college 'cause you're a great hooper. Then when I found out that you're Christian, I thought you might be another comercial Christian that becomes christian only to get followers or something, but I then started watching your videos in KZfaq like 1 Day in the life of MPJ and your tweets about George Floyd, and that's when I realized you're authentic. And I thank God now for your life MPJ, pleased keep doing this kind of content, your one my heroes now man, inside and outside the court bro

Jesus Saves.. God bless you and continue to stand on your faith.

MPJ using his platform to highlight deep & important convos on life is one of the best things on the internet 💯 Much respect for this channel, this is the content that truly makes an impact 🙏

Thanks MPJ for putting this out!! 👍

I appreciated your authenticity and vulnerability. That invites people in to be curious with you. Thank you.

You are one of your favorite basketball players. I don't understand English very well, but this video is very interesting.I am cheering from Japan🇯🇵

This is awesome, it’s nice to know that I’m not alone in certain viewpoints 🙏🏼🙏🏼

unashamed. love this new podcast MPJ, Nuggets winning a championship next!!

Wow man. I honestly didn't expect you to be Christian. Stand up man! As a Blazers fan, I respect you so much and now you have become one of my favorite players.

Yessir, thanks you Michael, and thank you Lecrae

It's nice to see an authentic Christian in the NBA. The devil is the ruler of this world. People will always hate the Truth because the world hates Jesus (no matter the timing). Keep standing up for the Truth. God Bless you!

yea they droppin knowledge Fs fs 🤝

Yes! A supernatural power within me. I felt that‼️

This interview is dope, answered a lot of questions I had regarding my early faith journey. Thank you 🙏🏾

Solid discussion! Keep spreading gods love and teaching people about jesus!

I love the way you both are free in this conversation❤. Also, this brings clarity.✌🏽

I loved this. I remember when I was like 16. And I remember MIke saying that he wants to use Basketball to spread the Gospel. That really inspired me. I love this podcast

🔥 fans of both

This is great! Keep doing it bro! Watching you from El Salvador, Central America

Great points. Religion is a search for a God you're not sure exists. Faith is realizing that God is all that ever was, is, and will ever be.

Chase humility 💎

Keep doing this MP, mad dudes need to experience God on a personal level like this ….

So good!! Can’t wait for more!

Great discussion Mike! Looking forward to the next episode.

You asked really great questions 👏🏽 I love this!!!!

This was great. I didn’t even know Michael porter jr. was on timing like this.

Great interview MPJ

YEAH MIKE!!!!💥💥💥

Stay on the nuggets forever please🙏🙏🙏

Please bro keep making videos like these it is very helpful

Thank you Mike for talking about your faith💛 Keep it up!! This was so interesting to watch:) God Bless🙏

… woa this was so good!!

I totally agree, I think social media is so toxic and stay away from it..unless it’s to stay informed in an issue it’s one of the many problems plaguing society today.

Thank you both for this!! Great convo.

We support you Mike

Huge fan mike! Great show and looking forward to more. I’m watching this in the bus on the way to camp

About humility I think we must understand that it's not belittling yourself. It's more about to know your strengths and weaknesses and don't overvalue neither undervalue yourself. It's like if Steph says : I'm the best 3pt shooter... Is it pride or just a fact? Or Jeff Bezos saying he is rich not bragging about that. Jesus wasn't silent about who he was so...

Go Mike, Go Mike! 😎

This is awesome bro God bless you I see that ur hungry keep seeking and u will find

Christian hooper🙌🙌🙌

I don't have a religion, I have my own relationship with God. I try to do good. Help people and think positive and don't push out hate. I'm not on social media. However, I think a lot of people don't have no faith at all which is why there's so much evil out there, but also remember there's a lot of good its just overshadowed

Thank you.

Sheeeeeesh

This is awesome Mike. Great to see this conversation with Lecrae.

Good job Mike! Keep it up.

LETS GOOOO!! 🙌🏾🙌🏾

This was excellent.

This vid was great Mike thanks for starting the channel

I’m loving this

Well done! Super interesting podcast keep it up!!

I love this!!!!!

Super bless talk 🙌🏽🙏🏽👌🏽

Love you Mike, keep up the great effort on and off the court!!

37:25 He’s right about the New Age stuff. That is growing and we need to be on the lookout to not be swayed by it.

It's simple. I see Lecrae, I click.

Doing God's work

Good content. Hope it the 1st of many. I like to make this contribution. I'm sure based on points that was shared by you both, we can agree man is a spiritual being. Just as we can only effect the things of God by time we spend in His presence so too time spent in the presence of ungodliness affects our behaviour. Proverb says evil communication corrupts good morals & Psalms says blessed are they who dwell not in the counsel of the ungodly. Though a Christ-like life isn't by any means one of isloation still, we have to manage our environment as we can be influenced. We are on our way to safety, so until we arrive we must be careful. Let him who thinks he stands take heed lest he falls. Keep doing a good work and don't come down. This will be in my prayers. Grace & peace!

Love this

It had to happen 🤝✨

Dang, this is so helpful

Matthew 5:43-48 ESV “You have heard that it was said, ‘You shall love your neighbor and hate your enemy.’ But I say to you, Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, so that you may be sons of your Father who is in heaven. For he makes his sun rise on the evil and on the good, and sends rain on the just and on the unjust. For if you love those who love you, what reward do you have? Do not even the tax collectors do the same? And if you greet only your brothers, what more are you doing than others? Do not even the Gentiles do the same? ...

Excellent questions, great answers--honestly. Would love to talk with you one day about Christ-centric worldview, and reasons for belief in the historicity of the gospel, etc. Although I think the tendency to take "last days" as almost too literal is kinda sensationalism. Because wars and rumors of wars were certainly also prevalent in medieval times, cultures treating evil practices as good by virtue of an appeal to popularity has been going on for several thousands of years, etc. Like according to Genesis, we're still even in the 7th day (that 7th "day" never ended), so I wouldn't read into the availability of worldwide depravity as an indication of recent times getting worse. People have always been out of line haha.

mpj 🥺💙

This was dope

Enjoyed the conversation. I always cringe when believers bring up “new age” and get a little a judgy about it. Although it didn’t get that bad in this convo. But Jesus was “new age” for his time. He was teaching people how to gain direct access to God and cultivate a personal relationship with the Source of All Life without the interference and conditioning of a ruling religion. They tried to discredit and demonize him because his teachings threatened the social order. When people know how to have direct access to and intimately experience God, they can no longer be controlled and manipulated by the ruling class. I’ve found that “New Age” is a dog whistle for anything religious or spiritual that expands an individual’s consciousness and moves them beyond the status quo. Now, I’m not saying that some people don’t take it too far and get extreme, but taking it to extremes happens in organized religion too. The best thing to do is stay rooted in the truth of your spiritual identity, use your discernment to follow the path that God has for you, whatever that is, and you will be fine.

It’s interesting that some people say they take psychedelics, and after the experience find themselves closer to God and more in tune with nature. Would’ve been an interesting question to hear discussed as well.

Wow this is so dope, such an interesting conversation! Had to subscribe 🤞

15:30-16:00✨

"Why did you choose Jesus?" This question really had me thinking 🤔❤

FINALLY!!❤

My guy!!

Lets gooooooo

Ego is all within the mind that takes credit....it is the sense of "I" that is separate from all that is not I. Ego can be an acronym for "edging God out." Now mushrooms are one tool that can show you what it is like beneath ego. That's why they are called God-flesh. But, once you rely on them to get there, you are dividing again, needing an "other." So I like to tell young men/women that doing them is ok, but it is only a peek at the map. You must do the work to learn to get there without them.
