- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5God is so good. To him be all the glory for teaching me and so many football fanatics of Philadelphia and all across the country what God can do and is capable of (Ephesians 3:20). God bless you Nick and your family, your a eagle forever!
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5I have to say that I really enjoyed this book. I expected it to be a little uncomfortable to read as a non-Christian, because I know that faith is central to Nick's life. He did a really nice job of sharing his faith without making it inaccessible to non-believers. He does refer to scripture, but always in the context of his favorite verses and what they bring to him. So, he uses the verse but then talks about the concept in a relatively secular way. There's a lot of wisdom he has to share, and I find his humility to be admirable. As a Jew, I'm still glad I read this.
