After playing college football, Kurt Warner didn’t have many options. But just when it seemed like his dreams of going pro would never pan out, he went from being a stock boy at a grocery store to a two-time NFL MVP, Super Bowl champion, and Hall of Fame quarterback.
On the surface, this may seem like your typical rags-to-riches Cinderella story, but that misses the most essential part of Kurt’s story — his unwavering faith in Christ.
After years of challenges and setbacks, it wasn’t just hard work that led Kurt to success in the NFL … but faith, hope, and love. And this is the story you’ll find at the heart of the Erwin Brother’s most recent movie American Underdog.
