This riveting story of a top-earning NFL center and his family who
walked away from it all to follow God's call to alleviate hunger as
farmers--a life they knew absolutely nothing about--illustrates the
sacrifice and ultimate reward of obedience to our heavenly Father even
when it doesn't make earthly sense.
"A remarkable story where family, deep self-reflection, and an
unshakable belief in a path predestined by God triumph over fortune and
comfort."--John Harbaugh, head coach of the Baltimore Ravens
NFL lineman Jason Brown had everything in the world. He was the
highest-paid center in the game. He lived in luxury. Millions of people
saw and admired him every week. Then in 2012, Jason heard a call from
God that changed everything.
Leaving behind an incredibly successful football career that paid
millions, Jason turned toward a life he knew nothing about: farming. It
was only the beginning of his journey. Through third-party mismanagement
and a run of bad luck, Jason lost most of the money he'd saved from his
NFL days--the same money he'd planned to use to start his new career and
donate fresh produce to hungry kids. Only a miracle could save Jason's
new dream.
And that's exactly what happened.
Centered is an inspiring riches-to-rags-to-true-riches story of one
man willing to risk it all for the sake of his family. For the sake of
loving others. For the sake of seeking God's dreams first--and reminding
each of us to do the same.
