It's Only Pain: But It's Real and It Hurts (Paperback or Softback)

Former University of Alabama football player Taylor Morton documents his journey through the mountains of pain in his life -- from dealing with the death of his brother, to being diagnosed with cancer, to being forced to walk away from football -- and the hope that helped him carry the sorrows that he could not understand. Though pain in this life is inevitable, it's real and it hurts; and therefore, it must be handled delicately. One of the most inspirational college football stories in the sporting world today, It's Only Pain will help you find hope, joy, and the strength to live with purpose, no matter what unfolds in life.

"Taylor's story is one everyone should hear. It shows what perseverance and faith can do when life presents you with the greatest challenges. As you read this book, I know you will appreciate the message. Taylor has taken the most adverse of situations and worked each and every day to be a blessing to other people."
-Nick Saban, University of Alabama head football coach

"The loss of a brother, a cancer diagnosis, and the sudden end of an athletic career is enough to make any person angry and bitter. But Taylor Morton is not just any young man. Through these setbacks, he's defined a life path of helping others to overcome adversity through faith in a loving God who has your back."
-Scott Cochran, University of Alabama strength and conditioning coach

"Taylor was a guy I wish I could be like. His drive for Christ and his love for people is a gift from God. We have similar stories, both losing someone we love at such an early age. He lost his younger brother, Trent, and I lost my father. I wish I had the courage to stand up and lay my life for Christ like he did. I look up to him more than anybody I know to this day. Taylor's story and testimony not only inspires me every day but will also touch the lives of those who read his book."
-Ben Jones, Houston Texans center
