Ep. 7 : Rescued from the guilt of a decision with Sherman Smith

In this episode, Jonathan sits down with Sherman Smith, a man rescued from the guilt of a decision in his past that wouldn’t catch up with him for more than 40 years.  This decision of his youth would change his life forever, his family forever, and his understanding of God’s kindness forever.

 

Sherman is a former NFL running back who played 8 seasons for the Seattle Seahawks and San Diego Chargers. After finishing his NFL career he would go on to teach high school, coach football and begin mentoring boys. He would go on to coach at his alma mater, Miami University in Oxford, OH before going on to coach in the NFL for more than 20 years.

 

Married to his wife, Sharon, for 44 years, Sherman has 3 children and 7 grandchildren and resides in Franklin, TN where his greatest “why” remains discipling men.

Jonathan shares his real-life story of love, life, and loss with refreshing vulnerability and engaging candor.
