About this sermon
From NFL football star to extraordinary servant of the Church, EWTN honored former New Orleans Saints wide receiver Danny Abramowicz on Monday night with the 2022 Mother Angelica Award. The football legend's midlife conversion back to the Catholic faith led him to create a national ministry for men. Abramowicz was also host of the EWTN series "Crossing the Goal." Danny joins to share what his reaction was to receiving this great honor and what went through his mind. After a very successful NFL career with the Saints and the 49ers, Danny ran into some troubles that ultimately brought him to God. He walks us through that chapter of his life. Danny talks about his ministry for men and how his football mindset impacted that ministry. This past year has not been easy for Danny, especially losing his wife of 56 years, Claudia. He tells us about Claudia and what she would say about him receiving the Mother Angelica Award. Danny says God is telling him He's not finished with him yet.
