by Ed McMinn (Author)

Daily Devotions for Die-Hard Fans: Notre Dame Fighting Irish combines the great passion of the Notre Dame fan with the grand passion of the fan of Christ in one set of devotions. The result is a book that is fun while it provides a time of reflection about God and your faith.

• Notre Dame's most successful sports program had its genesis in an automobile accident.
• Each fall, the Irish stay true to a promise that was made decades ago.
• Justin Yoon knew nothing about football, but he ended his time at Notre Dame as the school's all-time leading scorer.
• Notre Dame's football players once pitched a revolution that left the coaches' families picketing them.
• Head coach Randy Waldrum predicted exactly how his soccer team would win the 2010 national title.

These stories and more are recounted here. Also appearing are Brian Kelly, Digger Phelps, Ian Book, Joe Montana, Arike Ogun-bowale, Ara Parseghian, Austin Carr, and many others. Their stories - along with legendary games, improbable victories, and historical events - are told with a twist: They are all tied to God's story.
