Centered

Description

This riveting story of a top-earning NFL centre and his family who walked away from it all to follow God's call to alleviate hunger as farmers--a life they knew absolutely nothing about--illustrates the sacrifice and ultimate reward of obedience to our heavenly Father even when it doesn't make earthly sense. NFL lineman Jason Brown had everything he could ever want. He was the highest-paid centre in the game, lived a life of luxury, and was cheered on by millions of people every week. Then, in 2012, Jason heard a call from God that changed everything. Jason turned his back on an incredibly successful career in football to pursue a new dream: ending hunger. But through third-party mismanagement and bad luck, Jason lost most of his savings from the NFL--the same money he'd planned to use to start his new career. He desperately needed the miracle that soon came. Today, Jason and his family run First Fruits Farms in Louisburg, North Carolina, a state where one in four children don't know where their next meal will come from. Since 2014, the Browns have donated more than 1.6 million servings of fresh produce to their community. Their motto: Never stop giving. Never stop loving. Never stop growing. With powerful and deeply personal insight, Centered is an inspiration to embrace the joy of following where God leads--no matter how crazy it sounds.
