Unleashing the Hidden Power of Adversity - Coming Back Stronger

As a female Saints fanatic and season ticket holder since '72, this book definitely fulfilled my expectations! Drew Brees is a one in a million guy, and I believe it when he says God led him to N.O. We needed a hero, and Drew fulfilled that need, along with many other caring people, in helping to restore 'the city that care forgot'.

The book was inspirational to me. I laughed, smiled, giggled, and cried. It was so well written that I felt I was sitting there with Drew as he told his story. In the face of so much adversity, his faith kept him going. So many of us would have thrown in the towel, but this man had the strength, determination, and faith to go on.

I don't think I'll read a more heartfelt book for a long while to come. I could barely put it down until I finished it. And the photos! Oh my, they tell the story as well.

A great read for anyone, whether or not a sports fan. A true story of a good man who has achieved great success is my kind of book! Who dat? Drew dat!

Drew Brees does a great job telling his story and talking about football. Were the book shines is when he talks about how you can shine through as well. Through reading his book, he try's to bring you to his level and tell you anyone can do anything. They just have to try and never give up.

This book is about dedication, hard work and trusting God through the process. As a sports mom I found it extremely encouraging. The life of an athlete can be very challenging not only physically but mentally. He did a great job making me feel as though I too, were going through every up and down with him toward victory.
Positive encouraging read!

Very interesting an entertaining read. A book for anyone to enjoy weather you are a sports fan or not. This is a book not only about sports but about one person's and one cities journey to regain what was lost.

One reviewer, Mr. Belvedere, wrote: "The most annoying thing to me is the fact that Mr. Brees is arrogant enough to believe that God and Jesus care about the football heroics and success of a guy who happens to be lucky enough to play for a living."

If God cares enough to count the very hairs of each of our individual heads, I think He can care enough about Mr. Brees to even assist him in making New Orleans Saints football history.

"But the very hairs of your head are all numbered." Matthew 10:30

I told a man about six years ago that I believed God would never honor a team with the name Saints with a championship victory until real saints were part of the team. Then along came Drew Brees whose book testifies that the New Orleans Saints got a real deal modern day saint, and look at the miracle that happened!

Yeah, I think God and Jesus care a lot about even the supposedly little things that comprise our lives.

I loved this book! Drew Brees believes that everyone has a purpose in life and that we should all live up to our potential. He expresses his faith throughout the book. Drew Brees takes you on a journey through his life which led up to the defining moment of winning the Super Bowl and receiving the blessings from the people of New Orleans, Louisiana, and the rest of us WHO DAT NATION around the world! It is an easy, enjoyable read for anyone who loves the SAINTS or for anyone who can appreciate an athelete doing something worthwhile with the talents they have been given.

I loved this book!! It was wonderful reading about a young man who has such an insight in to being given much and knowing the need to give back. He has been truly blessed by God and is not afraid to let pepole know that it was not all his power but God enabling him. A wonderful book for people facing hardships and adversity in their lives. Read it and pass it on to someone esle to read!!!

I was pleasantly surprised by this book, my son has taken a liking to Drew and so I got the book for his tablet and read it on mine. Very impressed with Drew's character and example! Good talking points for my son of 9 who wants to be a QB with the Saints!
Very real story of the power of love and persistence!

People often only see the Super Bowl champ and that is it. However, the story before that, the long journey, especially the adversity and injury, are often overlooked. This covers them all, anyone can take home with something. I enjoyed it.

This was a super read. I liked Drew Brees before, but this book gave great insight into his character and motivation. It tells fans how down-to-earth he and his wife are. He is a great role model for all men and boys. He is not afraid to speak of his prayer life and his faith. I highly recommend this book.

I love the Saints and Drew Brees and the wonderful city of New Orleans.

The Saints and Drew Brees are my second favorite football team and quarterback.

Thank You for this great book and your inspiration.

No offense but, Go Hawks!

DREW BREES IS JUST A NORMAL HUMAN BEING, DOING EXTRAORDINARY THINGS FOR GOD. I AM INSPIRED TO BE THE BEST I CAN BE FOR GOD. NEVER GIVE UP EVEN WHEN YOUR CIRCUMSTANCES SAY TO GIVE UP, GOD IS ALWAYS THERE TO GIVE YOU GUIDANCE. I WOULD RECOMMEND THIS BOOK TO EVERYONE.
