Having grown up in poverty, Demario Davis found himself treading the wrong path. His life was filled with drugs, alcohol, violence, and eventually, jail. Despite adversity, he never gave up on his dream of playing NFL football, but he didn't go through any sort of transformation to achieve that dream. He led the same immoral life until a message from God warned that he was dangerously close to losing everything.

Demario became a pro football player, eventually signing with the New Orleans Saints, but his success was due to a search for something greater, which he found with the help of faith. He discovered greatness is not based on a scoreboard or money in a bank account, but instead, on the redemption gifted to us by Christ.

In this inspirational memoir, meet a man who went from troubled kid to professional athlete, all with the Lord's guidance. Our wins and losses do not define us. It is God's call on our lives that is most important, and Demario's life is evidence of the power of prayer and faith. In the midst of what the world deemed defeat, he learned what it means to be a true champion and make a blessed difference in the world.

NFL linebacker and philanthropist
Demario Davis currently lives in Nashville, Tennessee with his wife, Tamela and their four children. Born in Mississippi and raised by his single mom and grandmother, Demario has beaten the odds placed against him and made a name for himself as one of the top linebackers in the league. But greater than any title he could earn on the football field is the one he holds as a child of God. Demario devotes his life to making, not his name, but the name of Jesus Christ known.
With a passion to inspire the next generation of leaders, Demario, along with his wife, Tamela, have founded a non-profit called Devoted Dreamers, to equip young people with the tools and resources to reach their full potential spiritually, mentally, and physically. In addition to his role as a speaker and mentor to the youth, Demario often speaks to churches, schools, and other groups to share his story and the message of the Gospel.
