Publisher's summary

Life changes overnight for coach John Harrison when his high school basketball team and state championship dreams are crushed under the weight of unexpected news. When the largest manufacturing plant shuts down and hundreds of families leave their town, John questions how he and his family will face an uncertain future.

After reluctantly agreeing to coach cross-country, John and his wife, Amy, meet an aspiring athlete who’s pushing her limits on a journey toward discovery. Inspired by the words and prayers of a newfound friend, John becomes the least likely coach helping the least likely runner attempt the impossible in the biggest race of the year.

©2019 Chris Fabry, based on the motion picture by Alex Kendrick and Stephen Kendrick (P)2019 Oasis Audio

Heartwarming story

This story relates to every day life and it's amazing how one can see a bit of themselves in the different characters. Having struggled with my own identity for the greater part of my life this story helped me better understand who I am in Christ. I am who God says I am and not what circumstances or the culture might say. I 100% recommend this book to anyone struggling with their identity. God bless you Alex and Stephen Kendrick...

Overcomer

The book seemed long. I like Chris Fabry narrating. He has a great voice to listen to. The main character perseveres through challenges and ends up a victor. I enjoyed it coming from a teacher’s perspective. Good book. I enjoyed the Kendrick brothers movies as well.

Life unvarnished without expletives.

This book reveals some hard realities in this person’s life and proves that vulgarity and crude language are not necessary to portray the scenario.

Inspiring and Uplifting

An inspiring and uplifting story of life's challenges and disappointments and finding a love that overcomes it all. The characters in this story struggle with acceptance, hurt, loss, loneliness, and unmet expectations. As they realize that their actions, both good and bad, have a lasting effect on others and they come to terms with their own limitations, they discover that God has a bigger plan and propose for their lives. Humbling themselves, surrendering their lives to God and trusting him for the outcome, they experience forgives, redemption, reconciliation and a love that lasts for all eternity. Not only will you enjoy this story, but it will encourage you and remind you that love conquers all.
