Title: MUST READ! GAME CHANGER!
Review: In June 2020, I purchased Shoot Your Shot, via amazon.com as a gift for someone heavily involved with Basketball. With all the ugliness going on in the world today, I thought sending encouragement through this individual's passion was a phenomenal idea!The book arrived in approximately 2 days, and as I prepared to dress it up in the gift bag, I began thumbing through the pages, just to find the book was DIVINELY chosen! Not only does the author use basketball to inspire the reader, I noticed he's from Philadelphia, PA (same place the individual is from, I purchased the book for), he invests and serves the at risk youth in low-income communities (same thing the individual does in South Phoenix), but what inspired me the absolute most is how the author used scriptures from the Bible to back his writing! That was it for me, I had to purchase another book for myself, as well as include it in the curriculum as the study book in a Life Skills Class, I would be teaching at a local Sports Club.Long REVIEW short (lol) this book encouraged me through a devastating time when so many I knew was dying from COVID19, life as I once knew it was topsy turvy, turned upside down, oh but GOD sent a ram in the bush, by the name of Vernon Brundage Jr, with his gift of writing SHOOT YOUR SHOT!If I may intervene in the lives of every COACH, MENTOR, SPORT REPORTER, BOYS & GIRLS CLUBS, and others PLEASE allow me to do so, and request for you all to PLEASE purchase this book, and as you dive into the depth flow of it's uplifting rhythm, please remember the children you are associated with and put this masterpiece in their hands as well.  Fall Sports 2020 have been cancelled almost worldwide, and although the players can't physically workout, this book would be a great workout mentally!Shoot Your Shot, will definitely be a game changer in the lives of those who read and apply the words to their life! May God Bless EVERYONE!
