Famed for winning this year's Super Bowl XLI "the Lord's way", Coach Tony Dungy of the Indianapolis Colts unveiled his personal memoir on Tuesday, revealing the deep faith behind his life.
In his biography, 'Quiet Strength: The Principles, Practices, & Priorities of a Winning Life', Dungy takes the opportunity to talk about what the true priorities in life should be and the focus we need to have on God.The Colts coach decided to write the book in reaction to the millions of fans who have expressed an interest in his past.
"Writing a book is something that I never intended to do," explained the pro-football coach in a statement. "However, after winning the Super Bowl, I heard from so many people who were excited about our victory.
"I wanted to tell each one of them that it wasn't the victory, but the journey, and the lessons learned along that journey that really matter. And the biggest lesson I learned was that God's hand is not only in the victories, but in the disappointments as well.
"It is my prayer that reading my story will cause people to stop and examine what's really important in life."
Surprising to some fans, the book does not emphasise the winning coach's career in the NFL. Instead, he delves deep into his personal faith, so he can show that football itself is not life. There is something more important than just sports.
