One Foot from Glory

By Dw Grant

One Foot From Glory by DW Grant

He spent his life chasing victories that always seemed just out of reach. But what if the greatest win was never on the scoreboard?

Matt Crown was once a wanna-be small-town football hero, later a longtime coach, and always a man wrestling with regret. His teams lost more than they won, his mistakes weighed heavy, and his heart often told him he lived one foot short of the goal line. From the battlefield to the locker room, from late-night prayers to fatherhood's struggles, Matt carried scars of both war and life.

But when tragedy shakes his family and time begins to run out, Matt is forced to reflect on what his life was truly about. Through grief, grace, and moments of unexpected redemption, he learns that glory isn't found in championships or perfect choices-it's discovered in love, forgiveness, and the quiet ways faith takes root in ordinary lives.

One Foot From Glory is a moving Christian inspirational novel about family, faith, and finding purpose. Blending the grit of small-town sports with the tenderness of father-son relationships, it's a story of legacy, healing, and the grace that meets us even in failure.
