    About this audiobook

    Life changes overnight for coach John Harrison when his high school basketball team and state championship dreams are crushed under the weight of unexpected news. When the largest manufacturing plant shuts down and hundreds of families leave their town, John questions how he and his family will face an uncertain future. After reluctantly agreeing to coach cross-country, John and his wife, Amy, meet an aspiring athlete who's pushing her limits on a journey toward discovery. Inspired by the words and prayers of a newfound friend, John becomes the least likely coach helping the least likely runner attempt the impossible in the biggest race of the year.

      My favorite part was that she realized she had to take responsibility for what she stole and ask each person for forgiveness.

      What a remarkable story, and really, a blessing shared to all who read or listen to it. Not only is Chris Fabry a highly talented author and narrator, better, he’s a great teacher of the Lord’s Holy Word. Thank you, Mr. Fabry. The occasion of my listening to this real life story came at just the right time, uplifting my very soul… Wonder how that came about?!?
