Three-time Super Bowl and NASCAR champion Joe Gibbs’s Game Plan for Life is an “average Joe’s” guide to what the Bible has to say about the 11 most-important topics for men. Topics such as: finances, relationships, living a life of purpose, finding the right vocation, physical, emotional, and spiritual health, and overcoming sin and addictions. Edited by Jerry Jenkins, and featuring contributions from Randy Alcorn, Ravi Zacharias, John Lennox, Tony Evans, Chuck Colson, Josh McDowell, Don Meredith, Walt Larimore, Ron Blue, Ken Boa, and Os Guinness, Game Plan for Life shows readers how to live a balanced, God-centered, purpose-filled life, using examples of Coach Gibbs’s own storied championship careers as a backdrop. A perfect blend of sports and basic theology, Game Plan for Life is designed to bring God’s word home to sports fans of all generations.
What I have done is read about the book, the philosophy, the contributors on [...] and of course, I have known Coach Gibbs for years.
I'm eager to read the book... in what I have gathered, what I most appreciate is the inclusive nature--the Integration if you will of a complete life.
As I was reading his approach in the book I see a strong parallel with my own work and most recent book, [...]
As I say in Chapter 1: "Strength is the mental, physical, emotional and spiritual reserve that makes for an extraordinary life. Where 'health' is living paycheck to paycheck, Strength is money in the bank. Strength is true wealth."
From my exploration, I'm confident that Coach Gibbs and I are in alignment on this...

I have been reading Joe Gibbs book "game plan for life" and wanted to share my thoughts so others will also read this book. I was expecting a book like Tony Dungy's. I really enjoyed his book and was hoping for another good one. As I started reading Gibbs book, I realized that his book is much deeper than Dungy's. Game plan for life goes deeper into topics of Christianity and lets ones know the truth about various topics.
This book is broken up by various authors who share their thoughts on various topics. Gibbs selected various ones who are educated in certain areas to share their thoughts.
Football is mentioned in this book, but it is not the main topic in this book. Gibbs does a good job of introducing different religious topics.
I would recognmend checking this book out at your local bookstore.
