Centered by Jason Brown
This riveting story of a top-earning NFL center and his family who walked away from it all to follow God's call to alleviate hunger as farmers-a life they knew absolutely nothing about-illustrates the sacrifice and ultimate reward of obedience to our heavenly Father even when it doesn't make earthly sense."A remarkable story where family, deep self-reflection, and an unshakable belief in a path predestined by God triumph over fortune and comfort."-John Harbaugh, head coach of the Baltimore Ravens
NFL lineman Jason Brown had everything in the world. He was the highest-paid center in the game. He lived in luxury. Millions of people saw and admired him every week. Then in 2012, Jason heard a call from God that changed everything.
Leaving behind an incredibly successful football career that paid millions, Jason turned toward a life he knew nothing about: farming. It was only the beginning of his journey. Through third-party mismanagement and a run of bad luck, Jason lost most of the money he'd saved from his NFL days-the same money he'd planned to use to start his new career and donate fresh produce to hungry kids. Only a miracle could save Jason's new dream.
And that's exactly what happened.
Centeredis an inspiring riches-to-rags-to-true-riches story of one man willing to risk it all for the sake of his family. For the sake of loving others. For the sake of seeking God's dreams first-and reminding each of us to do the same.
