How a Traumatic Brain Injury Changed Max McCalley’s Life and Athletic Career

Max McCalley was getting recruited out of high school to play quarterback at the Division 1 level. As a Christian athlete, he felt like this was what God was calling him to. He and a lot of his teammates were on fire for Jesus, something that is so rare in today's high school sports culture. But all that changed in one day when Max suffered a traumatic brain injury off of the football field, leaving him unable to play the game he loved. The following months and years to come would be a challenge for Max.

On today's episode, we sit down with Max to talk about his journey from high school football prospect to not being able to remember how to read or write. All throughout his remarkable comeback though, it was clear through our conversation that he never lost hope in Jesus.

Throughout the conversation, listen out for:

• Max's story of trials, healing, and recovery
• The role of sports in Max's life
• His view of God and life after this journey
• Having faith and trust in Christ even when all hope seems lost
• How Max has battled back to become a high school football coach, in ministry, and training for an Ironman triathlon
