2012 CY Young Winner, RA Dickey joins us on the podcast today. He came from a low-income, broken home. He learned how to survive through extreme adversity, trauma and abuse. Sports Illustrated wrote a review of his book and said, "The finest piece of nonfiction baseball writing since Ball Four."

We had a great conversation about his life and what he's learned, especially what he learned through failure. He's a deep-thinking guy who know's how to tell a story. We had a lot of laughs, excited to share this one with you. God uses all things for the good, even when it's a NY Met winning the CY Young.

How do you get the Ego out of your way and develop a posture of humility?

What was winning the 2012 Cy Young like?

What is the difference between stubborn and relentlous?

Why is it imortant to learn from failure?

How can you use your influence to change someone's life?

There is an old saying, the teacher will appear when the student is ready. RA shares many examples of God bringing men into RA's life and picking him up and guiding him. So many little lessons in this one!
