I've never read anything by this author, so I didn't really know what to expect. I was really encouraged and learned a ton from this book and look forward to reading more from this author. I highly recommend this book.

This is a great biography from a record-setting quarterback, now the quarterback for the Denver Broncos.  There are great football stories, and also great stories about Case's life as a Christian.  This was written well, and interesting to read (as a sports fan and a Christian).

This was such a great read for overcoming adversity and proof that you only need to believe in yourself not have others believe in you. After being instated and released three times from different NFL teams, Case Keenum made it on as the starting QB for the Minnesota Vikings. If that does not demonstrate overcoming adversity, I don't know what will. An inspiring autobiography with an important lesson we can all learn from.

Thank you to NetGalley and B&H Publishing for the ARC in exchange for an honest review. This title will definitely be considered for our biography collection in our library. That is why we give it 5 stars!

If you are a fan of college football you will enjoy Case Keenum's story. Case not only shares his football history but also shares his faith. In Case's world it is faith, family and football in that order. His faith is what has gotten him through many difficult days on the football field. Those days include both injuries and disappointing performances. His days at the University of Houston are a who's who of college football coaching names from Kevin Sumlin to Kliff Kingsbury. He shares with us his courtship with his wife Kimberly which started in FCA. With all the negative news coming out of the NFL in the last year or so it is really refreshing to read about a positive individual. I will leave you with what Case and his dad text before every game. This pretty much sums up Case. Pray hard. Play hard, Take care of the ball. Have fun.
