For 21 years, Dan Russell trained for four to six hours a day, six days a week in pursuit of winning an Olympic Gold medal in the sport of wrestling. He pushed his body to the limits, enduring brutal weight loss regimens, shattering injuries, personal tragedy, and constant inner battles with the voices from his past telling him that he wasn't good enough.

With his brother and fellow champion wrestler, Joe, by his side, Dan reached the heights of what could be accomplished in the sport. Dan's Olympic dream was within his grasp. But God had other plans for his life.

Finish Strong is the incredible story of a driven man's pursuit of success and finding purpose when all seems lost. It is the story of a wrestler, struggling not just against his opponents in the ring, but to discover what makes a true champion.

The lessons from Dan's life teach us that to finish strong, we must make the choice to fight for our dreams and embrace the struggle and when we do, the winning will take care of itself.

Dan Russell’s story is one of the best Christian athlete stories I’ve ever come across. I’m so thankful Dan and Craig put this into writing. It’s brilliant. Yes it’s about the sport, the brutal sport of Greco Roman wrestling, but it’s ultimately about life’s complete unpredictability. It’s about God’s Will and how it never matches up to what we think it should be. It’s about the blood of Jesus Christ overtaking everything and taking our sin and pain and turning it something worth redeeming. And it’s about the emptiness of medals that gather dust. Wow. What a strontium. I just rush it was 10 times longer!!!

The Point of it all

My husband asked where did all the great men go? I remember being in a youth group service 20 years ago where the pastor said that this nation needs strong men to grow up and be strong fathers. To answer the question I came here looking to see if the pastor wrote a book on how those great men are made. This is a must read! This is a divinely inspired book.
