Overview
Mission Possible by Tim Tebow is a really encouraging read. Tim shares a lot of personal stories from people he's met throughout his life of serving those who are struggling with special needs and/or life threatening medical conditions.
What Worked
The firsthand accounts from folks Tim has worked with are absolutely humbling. The story that really resonated with me the most was the story of Ethan Hallmark, a young man with a stalwart heart and a MOUNTAIN of faith. Ethan was diagnosed with Stage 4 Neuroblastoma in 2010 when he was 9 years old. Ethan ultimately succumbed to his cancer, but not without leaving some words of wisdom behind. Ethan's story is also captured in a video documentary called Many are The Wonders by I Am Second. I haven't watched this documentary yet, but I will be doing that as soon as I finish writing this book review.
Final Verdict
This book was a whirlwind of emotions. I have a lot to learn about faith, and I need to keep myself humble because I haven't been through half the trials and tribulations that some of these folks go through every day. After reading this, there's no excuse any of us can come up with for not staying 'on mission'.
