Standing With Christ: Faith Beyond the Field w/ Izzi Stratton
Izzi Stratton has built an impressive career as a Division I soccer player at Brigham Young University— she's an elite athlete by every measurable standard. But this episode takes us down a conversation that goes beyond goals scored, minutes played, or her many athletic achievements.
Izzi shares what it meant to step away from competitive soccer to serve a mission for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. About coming home changed—and the quiet pressure to stay the same. She gives us insights on how faith looks different in each season of life, and why women have a meaningful and powerful place in the kingdom of God.
Most importantly, Izzi opens up about her personal relationship with Jesus Christ—about where her faith began, the tender moments that shaped her, and how serving an 18-month mission strengthened her connection to Him.
With incredible confidence, she shares her testimony that Jesus Christ and his gospel have the power to change us—and that faith gives us the courage to stand firmly with Him, rooted in belief, purpose, and joy.
