Chaz Smith – Doing What Is unEXPECTED
Summary
I grew up always feeling overshadowed by my famous father, burdened with expectations that left me questioning my own value. Despite a loving Christian upbringing, I struggled with deep insecurities and, during my early teens, fell into a destructive cycle of masturbation that led to a full-blown pornography addiction. This struggle only deepened my feelings of unworthiness until a chance encounter showed me that my true identity and worth come from Jesus alone. Clinging to His truth, I experienced a transformation that restored my spirit and gave me hope. Today, I share my story so others can know that in Christ, our brokenness is healed and our lives are made new.

Everyone knew @ChazSmith because everyone knew Chaz’s father, professional basketball player, Charles Smith. After a stand-out college career, a decade in the NBA, and winning an Olympic gold medal his father had made a name for himself in the world of sports. But Chaz never wanted to play basketball. He wondered if he had value and worth outside of basketball or the shadow of his father’s fame. “Am I good enough,” was the question that constantly plagued Chaz’s mind. Various struggles, including an addiction to porn only made this doubt more dire! But a chance encounter in middle school would show him that God had something planned for his life, a plan that has now brought joy to millions across the internet
