I should state up front that I am not a huge sports fan.\u00a0 And my understanding is the market for books written by sports stars relating their faith journeys is a crowded one indeed.\u00a0 Be that as it may, Isom tells her particular story with an almost shocking honesty and intensity.\u00a0 She shows she isn\u2019t concerned with maintaining her image as she graphically describes her struggle with an eating disorder, how the suicide of a loved one rocked her world, and how a car wreck revealed her life for the spiritual wreck it was.\u00a0 Her humility is obvious, and she speaks as one who has overcome a crippling insecurity because she knows the One who offers true security.\u00a0 Her boldness isn\u2019t a star athlete\u2019s bravado, but a committed believer\u2019s quiet strength.\u00a0 She knows that in her weakness she is strong, and she lives it.<\/p>\n
Isom\u2019s story will speak powerful truth into the life of any young person who will care to listen.\u00a0 She knows firsthand the pressures faced by those who place too much hope in academics, athletics, appearance, achievement, or popularity.\u00a0 She encourages us to learn from her mistakes, and she presents an example that is worth following.\u00a0 To top it off, she writes very well, and the reader feels along with her the joy, anguish, fear, disappointment, anger, and shame of her experiences.\u00a0 She also does a great job narrating the audiobook version.<\/p>\n
Isom\u2019s story will inspire you\u2014and I really mean that.\u00a0 Highly recommended.<\/p>\n
