Perry Noble grew up in the upstate of South Carolina and has a very colorful background. I have had the pleasure of being one of the owners of NewSpring Church which is based out of Anderson, attending the Columbia Campus.
Please enjoy this excerpt from the book, that I finished reading yesterday...
You probably don't remember where you were on October 21, 2006, but I remember it quite well.
I love college football and my favorite team is the Clemson Tigers. I've been a Clemson fan ever since I can remember, and there's nothing quite like being in Death Valley (the nickname of their stadium) and watch them dominate their opponent.
On that day in October 2006, the Tigers were playing their rivals, Georgia Tech. Both teams were nationally ranked, it was a night game, and ESPN's Gameday was there. Needless to say the atmosphere was electric.
Without going into too much detail , I'll just say that Clemson absolutely whipped Georgia Tech's rear end. The final score was 31-7, and I can honestly say, I've never heard the stadium as loud as it was that evening. People were going crazy, proclaiming their love for Clemson and declaring that they were the greatest football team to have ever walked the face of the earth. I think I even witnessed a few people throwing their babies onto the field.
Emotions were at an all-time high. Clemson was on a roll. No one and nothing could stop this team.....
LIE #2. Emotion will sustain my devotion
Get a copy of Perry's book and read how he ties this story and so many others into our walk with Jesus Christ. You will not want to put it down!
