Mark 2.0 - A podcast by Mark and Brian

Join with us as we chat with Tommy Doles.  Just 26 years of age but already with a lifetime of experiences.  From high school football stardom and a Michigan state championship with Grand Rapids Christian, to a college career at Northwestern in the Big 10 as a 6'4" 300 pound lineman.  From there Tommy went on to try outs with both the Chicago Bears and Atlanta Falcons.  His love of football took him across the Atlantic where he played professionally in France until Covid came along and put an end to the season and that adventure.  Rooted in faith he tells us how he navigated life's ups and downs by being anchored in Christ.  Tommy joins us from Tennessee where he works as an Assistant Athletic Director at Lincoln Memorial University as well as serving as a reservist as a Civil Affairs Specialist for the US Army.  And if that's not enough he's still finds time to be a volunteer fire fighter.   With all the life experience you would think he would have written a book already.  He has, it's called "Gridiron Redemption - The NFL, Paris and a Pandemic".   No doubt this book will have a sequel, and we look forward to having Tommy back with us to share more of his life journey.  If you're looking to pick up a copy it's available from Amazon at the following link: https://www.amazon.com/Gridiron-Redemption-NFL-Paris-Pandemic-ebook/dp/B09ZKP97H5/ref=mp_s_a_1_1?crid=2C4OP973R2N3S&keywords=gridiron%20redemption&qid=1651866306&sprefix=gridiron%20%2Caps%2C158&sr=8-1&fbclid=IwAR1lufEawriqniJo7Kzkg-5Vm2sGDRp0D-UTbwffjpOgo77Wdqfp9Zm_5NQ
