The Dark Side of Glory & The Faith That Brought Me Back

November 3, 2025

From Heisman glory to brutal truths, former pro football quarterback Tim Tebow opens up like never before. In this deeply intimate conversation with Dr. Daniel Amen, the athlete-turned-humanitarian shares the real story behind his faith, a lifetime of migraines, dozens of concussions, and his calling to stop seeking football MVP trophies and start fighting for the world's MVPs (Most Vulnerable People). Today, he goes into the hardest, darkest places in the world bringing faith, hope, and love. You'll see a side of Tim Tebow that's rarely revealed — raw, humble, and on fire for purpose. In this episode, you'll learn:

  • The miracle story of Tim's birth and why doctors said it was "impossible."
  • The day he decided to accept Jesus into his heart and how it changed his life.
  • How a childhood diagnosis made him feel "less than."
  • The tackle that led to a brain bleed and nearly broke his neck.
  • How years of football and head trauma seriously impacted his brain, and what he's doing to heal it.
  • The powerful moment in the jungles of the Philippines that redefined his purpose.
  • Why his genetics put him at greater risk for dementia.
  • Why he wants to show up to Heaven "exhausted."
