Building Stronger Families: Faith, Fun, and Football with David Pollack and Pastor J on the Family Goals podcast.

As someone who’s spent years immersed in the world of sports, both as a player and an analyst, I’ve come to realize that life’s true victories don’t happen on the field—they happen at home, with your family, in your faith, and in your personal growth. That’s why I teamed up with my good friend, Jonathan Howes, the lead pastor at Graystone Church, to bring you the Family Goals podcast. Together, we dive deep into the core of what truly matters: faith, family, sports, and all the little things in between that make life so full.

Now, if you know me from my days with ESPN’s College GameDay, you already know I’m passionate about football. But what I’m even more passionate about is helping people build stronger, more fulfilling lives off the field. With Jonathan, we have real, honest conversations—sometimes we get serious, sometimes we crack up laughing—but every episode is filled with wisdom that I believe can help you tackle life’s challenges head-on.

Whether it’s about being a better dad, improving your marriage, or just seeking encouragement in your faith journey, we try to bring a fresh perspective. We talk about the everyday struggles that so many of us face, and we also celebrate the victories, big and small. Jonathan and I aren’t perfect, but we’re here to share our experiences and learn together. And yes, we have plenty of fun along the way.

If you’re someone who enjoys sports but is also seeking deeper meaning in life—whether it’s through your relationships, personal growth, or faith—then I think you’ll love what we’re doing on Family Goals. We bring you real conversations that matter, from the heart, and we hope to make you laugh, think, and maybe even inspire some change in your own life.
