Hello there, young All-Star Believer! What do you admire most about your favorite football sports star?

Don't you feel immensely thrilled and proud when your favorite player hits a home run, scores a goal, or wins a coveted championship? Every score and win is indeed admirable and worth celebrating. While milestones may shine bright, these achievements should not eclipse the long road to success. Before reaching the pinnacle of their career, your sports athletes spent countless hours honing their skills, practicing, and sweating it out in the field. Above all, while their faith in their capabilities and in God may have wavered at some point, they were never extinguished.

So when you feel like there are too many laps to run, balls to hit or kick, or opponents to overcome, think back to your favorite sports heroes. Determination and faith in God will also pull you through the toughest roads.

Within this book, you will find the inspiring stories of the heroes who took their sports to the forefront of the world stage and how their faith in God helped them through it all.
