The diversity of the author's story can provide leaders and budding leaders with transformational concepts that produce positive change because they will easily identify with Andre's story. The journey of Faith in Action demonstrates the tests and trials that God uses to mature those He loves. The path to Andre's journey leads to legacy and a life well-lived.

"Throughout my time on the football field, God showed me how to deal with success and to grow through losses. He taught me how to discern His purpose and plan amid disappointment and discouragement and to be deliberate, determined, and intentional to reach my destiny against all odds. God can use anything to grow us and He used football to teach me lessons that gave me a strong life foundation. God, by His love and grace, prepares His people to overcome adversity, and you will come out a winner even with losses! He used the football field to cultivate leadership within me. As you peer into my journey you will be encouraged and inspired to embrace whichever 'field' He is currently using to prepare you for your future because the ending and the legacy is worth the wait."--Andre Foulks

Review

Faith in Action is a journey into the life and legacy of Andre Foulks on the football field but is about much more than football. It is about the "ups" and "downs" of life when pursuing ones' dreams, passion, and vision. The author takes the reader on an exhilarating ride from his middle school experiences through college, and his disappointments of turning "Pro." However, his disappointments turn into stepping stones to success in life and his career. Andre points out the importance of a good attitude and good character to succeed in any endeavor off the football field. This book will leave you inspired, encourage, and uplifted; knowing that you can overcome the odds against you! JJ Planter
