I downloaded it for my flight home and have ordered a hard copy to have on hand as well. Season of Life is a book about what it means to be a man of substance and impact. It is a moving story that will resonate with athletes, coaches, parents—anyone struggling to make the right choices in life. This book hit home with me on multiple fronts, as a coach and as a mother of boys.
Much of his philosophy on coaching and sports are similar to the experiences my boys have had playing football. I immediately realized that this book had articulated the reasons I am grateful for the coaches my sons have had in their lives. I can't recommend this book strongly enough! Many of us get into coaching to make an impact in a child's life, and as parents, this book articulates what we are hoping our children get out of sports.
I hope you enjoy it as much as I did and make it a holiday gift for the special coaches in your life! Amazon's Description. Joe Ehrmann, a former NFL football star and volunteer coach for the Gilman high school football team, teaches his players the keys to successful defense: penetrate, pursue, punish, love. A former captain of the Baltimore Colts and now an ordained minister, Ehrmann is serious about the game of football but even more serious about the purpose of life.
Season of Life is his inspirational story as told by Pulitzer Prize—winning journalist Jeffrey Marx, who was a ballboy for the Colts when he first met Ehrmann. Ehrmann now devotes his life to teaching young men a whole new meaning of masculinity. He teaches the boys at Gilman the precepts of his Building Men for Others program: Being a man means emphasizing relationships and having a cause bigger than yourself. It means accepting responsibility and leading courageously.
It means that empathy, integrity, and living a life of service to others are more important than points on a scoreboard. Has anyone else read this book or have a great book to share? I would love your thoughts and suggestions in our Get a Grip Facebook Group.
