Description
What exactly is manhood How do guys get there
Tim Brown won the Heisman Trophy at Notre Dame and starred in the NFL for seventeen seasons. He left the game as a Los Angeles and Oakland Raiders legend and one of the most respected men in sports, and was inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 2015. Now Mr. Raider shares his amazing journeythe triumphs, the heartbreaks, the struggles with women, Al Davis, and Godas well as the principles and priorities that made him the man he is today.
Much more than a sports memoir, The Making of a Man reveals how faith, family, honor, and integrity have everything to do with true manhood and a life well-lived. Whether you are a rabid fan or have little interest in football, a young boy or already facing the fourth quarter of your life, these pages will both challenge and inspire you to become the man youve always known you could be.
When a man comes into your life and shows you something about yourself that you didnt know was in you, its remarkable. The Apostle Paul did that for Timothy, encouraging him to preach and teach and reminding him, Do not neglect your gift (1 Tim. 4:14). Paul was a mentor to Timothy, ready to point out the gifts of his protg and willing to help develop those gifts and pass on his knowledge. Lou Holtz did the same for me, as well as for a whole lot of other guys. Thats what a mentor does. Ill always be grateful that he inspired me to believe in myself.
