Quiet Strength Post 3
At this point Dungy has come to the conclusion that god has been testing him in all the hardships of his life. Early in his twenties he decided that god must come first in everything he does in life. During his first tests he found that he was falling away from his faith when confronted with hardships. He later learned that in order to defeat the challenges that lay ahead of him, he must sit back and let god do the work because god has a plan for everyone. He feels that god put him in Tampa as the Head Coach. In his first season the bucs went 2-14 but they felt change coming. Prior to that season Dungy hired 3 men who went on to become head coaches and the one who didnt is the most famous of them all. In 1997 the Bucs started 5-0 knocking off teamssuch as Detroit, San Francisco, and defending champion Green Bay Packers. This started a great season.

Hi, SG, this is your teacher,
ReplyDeleteI looked at this book on your desk, and it looks interesting and inspirational. Sports stories are some of the best to read!
To answer a common question about what to do in the blogs--begin each new book's post with title, author, publication year information. Begin each post by stating which book you're reading and give a 2-3 sentence summary of what's happened so far. The bulk of your post should be your thoughts about the book. This should be fun for you with this book!
