Book Description
You Can't be Feeble in Football. But that's exactly what Marc was. Repeatedly bullied and overweight, Marc was an unpopular kid who turned pain into fuel to transform his body, train his mind, and change the course of his entire life. What started as self-defense became an unquenchable thirst for self-improvement from pre-dawn sprints at his high school track to living in a storage closet while training for the NFL draft. It took blood, sweat, sacrifice--and his mom's heartfelt advice--for Marc to go from an insecure boy to a professional NFL athlete. His against-all-odds story is proof that a bigger life, a better version of you, and incredible success is possible with enough grit, hard work, and dedication. For anyone who's been told they aren't strong enough, fast enough, or simply good enough, this book will move you to dream big and believe in yourself.

(This is the paperback on sale at Barnes and Noble.)Finally my prayer was answered! But EVERYTHING seemed to be falling apart and going against me and it seemed like God was not there and had abandoned me despite the initial answer to my prayer. However, although it may seem like when strange and weird things happen to you that you are on the wrong path and heading for failure, the truth is that God is actually with you and the reason you are having so much opposition thrown at you is because you are on the right path and you are actually heading for VICTORY. This book, Champions Never Quit: God Is Close By Your Side, is my personal experience which I believe many of you will be able to relate to, of when it seemed like God was not there, did not care, and everything seemed to be going against me and falling apart.
