Kathy Ireland Opens Up About Journey From Sports Illustrated to Bible Study

Former supermodel Kathy Ireland, who graced the cover of Sports Illustrated's swimsuit issue three consecutive years in the late 1980s and early 1990s before building a business empire worth over $2 billion, has opened up about how God redeemed her story and transformed her identity from cultural icon to devoted follower of Christ. Ireland shared her passion for teaching biblical literacy and leaving a legacy of faith, describing her 'true identity' as a daughter of God rather than a product of the modeling industry that made her famous. Her testimony adds to a growing chorus of public figures finding meaning beyond fame and fortune in personal faith.
