"Leading a family is the hardest job a man can ever have. It is 24/7 leadership, teaching, modeling, forgiving, encouraging and loving-and there is always room for improvement. Mark Merrill has made a career out of teaching men how to raise their game as husbands and fathers, and his All Pro Dad lays out a solid game plan that will make a huge difference in your family." -Dave Ramsey, New York Times best-selling author and nationally syndicated radio show host "What I count as the greatest success of my life is not what goes on when cameras are rolling during our NFL television broadcast, but rather in those private, loving moments with my family. Through All Pro Dad, Mark Merrill inspires fathers to be champions in their homes and equips them to love and lead their children well." -James "JB" Brown, host of CBS's The NFL Today
