B O O K H O O K : NFL MVP quarterback Randall Cunningham, faced with tragedy, discovers vital principles to recapturing joy and empowerment whether suff ering from loss, bad choices, addictions, failed relationships, or fi nancial and career disasters.

L AY I T D OW N HOW LET T IN G GO BRIN GS OUT YOUR BEST RAN DALL CUNNINGHAM

Randall Cunningham, 47, past recipient of the NFL’s Most Valuable Player Award, quarterbacked the Philadelphia Eagles, Minnesota Vikings and spent his fi nal season with the Dallas Cowboys. He was voted to the NFL Pro Bowl four times. He is now a pastor and mentor in Las Vegas, NV, where he graduated from UNLV.HOMETOWN: Las Vegas, NV

A n astounding prophecy is whispered by a mysterious old woman to a sorrowful mid-

40s couple who has just lost their two-year-old son in a hot tub accident. Considering

their age, they laugh like Abraham and Sarah at this seemingly outrageous prediction, only

to discover days later that they are indeed pregnant. Cunningham, who now leads a church

in his hometown of Las Vegas, is astonished by the reality that God does miraculous things

when we have the faith to “let go” of personal tragedies and see God do his work. The book

shows readers how to work out the “lay it down” principle in all phases of life.

We men are so predictable. As a way of avoiding even the most remote possibility of

authentic relationships, most of us are quick to form a complex web of surface-level

friendships, an ever-expanding collection of “buddies.” Yet we never manage to develop even

one really close friendship. The Man Code is a powerful tool to help men reorganize their

thoughts and revolutionize their lives by learning to form meaningful relationships, starting

with God and branching out from there. The code is 1, 3, 12, 120, 3000, and by mastering

the relationships these fi ve numbers represent, men will establish the right priorities, make the

right plans, diagnose unforeseen diffi culties, make mid-course corrections and achieve the

positive results that they desire and God intends.
