S3 E05. The Rebirth in Football

Why are so many Premier League players wearing their faith on their sports sleeve? We chart the rise of the Christian footballers in this documentary episode. Speaking to John Bostock of Ballers In God, Justin investigates the new awakening among Arsenal's 'Bible Brothers' - including Saka, Eze & Timber, plus players across other top teams - Joel Ward, Gabriel Jesus, Ben Gannon-Doak, Maxence Lacroix, Antoine Semenyo & Mark Guehi.Joe Lowther of Sports charity KICK, and Martin Saunders of Youthscape also offer their thoughts on how the surprising rebirth of faith among footballers is impacting the wider culture.
