Derwin Gray joins us to talk about his book The Good Life and share a few NFL stories!
1. Derwin was born to parents 17 and 19 years young. Each had their own issues and, because of that, he was raised by his grandparents. What was your family dynamic growing up? Who raised you? How did that play into the man you are today? 2. Several years into the NFL Derwin realized, "You've accomplished all your dreams but yet you are not happy." How does this thought and quote resonate with you? How have you ever found yourself thinking the same thing? 3. Like many of us, Derwin lived with incredible fear of losing his job, purpose, and identity. He thought, "Who would I be once they told me I couldn't play anymore?" What are you fearful of losing? What do you find security in other than Jesus' provision? 4. Derwin grew up a compulsive stutterer. What are some things you believe to be true about yourself that will keep you from telling people about Jesus and following His call in your life? 5. Derwin's wife came to faith before him and prayed for Derwin to know Jesus months before he did. Are you and your spouse on the same page in your faith? What ebbs and flows do you find in your marriage? 6. Mourning is something Christians often disregard. This is a very hard and trying time for all of us. What areas of your life are you mourning or grieving in this season? What is Jesus speaking to you in this season?
