I enjoyed this book very much. I had seen it and had put off reading it simply because I just thought it would be another book about a Christian athlete/coach. I had met Tony Dungy when he was the coach of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. I did a chapel service for the team and spent a few minutes with him after the service. He is a humble, genuine Christ follower. I should have known that the book based on his life would be worth reading and it was.
Being a football fan, it is always interesting to read about the inner workings of the game and the teams. Beyond that it was just refreshing to read about someone who has been solid in their faith from their childhood. The book simply affirmed what I had observed in those few minutes when I met him – Tony Dungy is the real deal.
The book is not only inspiring from a spiritual stand point, it is a good book on leadership. Tony Dungy is no doubt a great leader.
I recommend Quiet Strength to any football fan who wants to be encouraged to life out their faith in a way that makes a difference in this world.
