I enjoyed some of the chapters in this book. I actually copied the one on the Bible because it had myths vs. facts (concise charts for prophecies fulfilled and ancient manuscript copies). Josh McDowell wrote that one and of course is always good. I have trouble reading sports figures' writing because they tend to repeat themselves and I find myself skimming along. That must be necessary in coaching - repeat, repeat, repeat. This is a positive, uplifting book.
This book's intended audience is men. However, I have to say, as a woman no less, that this is one of the best books I have ever read. It is easy to read and so well-thought out. It truly is a playbook for success. I plan to buy a copy of this book (after reading a library copy)to keep to reread. Man or woman, this is one book that everyone will enjoy reading.
Great book and a must read for every believer. The connection the book has to the website with updates to the chapters is excellent. The staff that Coach Gibbs has put together to write the chapters is second to none. I also highly recommend the small group bible study by the same name.
Coach Gibbs has some great people in this book who can help you with just about everything from money to how to be a great leader. I have bought some of the books that the people in this book talk about. A chapter just gets you started, coach Gibbs and his team of writers are great.
This is an excellent book to use to introduce someone to Christian doctrines pertaining to the Bible and God. However, to someone who has been "churched" it can get a little slow.
Great book if you need direction in your life. Read and apply to your life and positive things will start to appear.
This was my first "borrowed" Kindle book. While it was geared toward men, I found Coach Gibbs' collection of various personalities to tackle various aspects of the Christian life made for a good inspirational read.
excellant and relevant for thos interested in Christianity and the bible in today's world.
Author calls upon other Christians to write the chapters while intertwining his story.

Great book by Coach Gibbs. Making the case for JC! I enjoyed some of the back stories about his old coaching days..
This is a book for me, but I love this book so much that I bought one for my Dad. I feel like I learned more about how to love men in a Godly way because I have some insight to their life. It's an easy read with a straight forward message.
Excellent idea in putting together the respected writers!
I thought this shared a fascinating perspective of a man I only knew from the news and sportscasters. A little too preachy for me, but good, solid advice for living and letting go of the outcome.
Very good, Gibbs has Christian experts answer questions that men have based on polling data. Some brilliant minds in this group and it is still very understandable.
Not bad. General rehash of spiritual self help books applied to everyday situations. Different perspective though coming from a generally successful football coach.
Mostly surface level stuff, but a pretty good analogy of God being our head coach in life.
I am not sure if I will finish this book. It is okay. I expected a little more to be honest.
