Far more than just a sports memoir, Redemption details the drudgery, devastation, and ultimate conversion that led Bryan to become a world champion. [God] had a plan when I believed that dreams never came true because, in my life, they never did, says Bryan. Through a remarkable series of events and devoted prayers of his mother, Bryans life was turned around into a victorious narrative of truly being redeemed.
