From a Father's Perspective (eBook, ePUB)

On His Own

Beschreibung

This book is about a young boy that left his home in Riviera Beach, Florida, and went 1,500 miles away to a university in the Midwest to play football in the Big Ten Conference. He faced multiple bouts of adversity stemming from being told he couldnt play the position he was recruited to play; being fifth on the depth chart at the position they said he could play at one time; dealing with injuries, female drama, his grandfathers passing, his home burning, and much more. It talks about how coaches say one thing then do another. It deals with coaches suppressing the personalities of individuals, the language that they use, and how they selectively use the language to certain individuals. This book talks about when I first met the head coach and his defensive coordinator, how I was able to discern their spirits and know that I couldnt speak on my sons whys and why nots concerning his playing time and his future with the team. Through all the aforementioned subject matters, God provided answers so that we could keep moving forward to reach our goals, which were to get a degree and to play college football. This book also describes how that boy grew into a man.

My name is Johnathan McFadden. I call myself the best athlete the world has never seen. By not getting the opportunity to showcase my talents on the big stage, I vowed that I would make sure that my son would not fall through the cracks. I was able to spend five fall camps and four spring football seasons at a Big Ten University in the Midwest. A total of ninety-three days. This book, From a Father's Perspective, was written with the hope of enlightening you parents or guardians on the pitfalls and adversities that your sons and daughters will face-let me repeat that-will face while playing major college sports. This book gives my perspective on coaches not always having your sons' or daughters' best interests at heart and on how money plays a big part in the game. I pray that this book be a beacon of light and that it enhances and equips parents and guardians with the ability to make sound decisions when they have to go through situations, circumstances, problems, incidents, or issues like we did. This book was led by the Holy Spirit. You will read how multiple times God, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit intervened in our lives.
