Synopsis

Daily Devotions for Die-Hard Fans: Penn State Nittany Lions combines the great passion of the Penn State fan with the great passion of the fan of Christ into one set of devotions, one book that is fun while providing a time of reflection about God and your faith. [[Joe Paterno found the greatest recruit of his life in the library. [[The Lady Lions basketball team once shared locker room space with a skeleton. [[Penn State's first All-American had a very strange nickname for a rough, tough center/linebacker. [[Penn State assistant coach Annie Zinkavich cried the first time she was told to play field hockey. [[The Nittany Lions once showed up late for a football game -- in Beaver Stadium. These stories and more are recounted here. Also appearing are Kerry Collins, John Cappelletti, Kelly Mazzante, Todd Blackledge, Franco Harris, and many others. Their stories along with legendary games, improbable victories, and historical events are told with a twist: They are tied to God's story.
