Strive

Life is Short, Pursue What Matters

Tim Hiller was in the throes of NFL training camp striving for a prized spot on the Indianapolis Colts’ roster, when six words abruptly changed his course: “We have to let you go.” Like Tim, we are all striving for something every minute of the day, everyday—career aspirations, social status, better parenting, friendship, love, fame, financial security, achievement, and more. In most cases, these are noble and understandable pursuits. Our time is short. Our lives are busy. We want these things now. But do they even matter?

Our careers will end, our friends and family will all pass someday, and our finances can’t leave this world with us. Someone will reject us. Ultimately, the world will forget our accomplishments. But what if we instead strive for the best thing possible—both in this life, and the eternal one to come?

In Strive, former collegiate and NFL quarterback Tim Hiller leads you on a year-long journey, taking small steps each week on the path to making your life matter . . . to developing more and more into the person God designed you to be. Hiller provides daily encouragement, challenges, and resources—straight from God’s word—to help each of us Strive toward a life of significance. Our lives are short.  Together, let’s pursue what matters.

Author Bio

From the earliest days, Tim Hiller’s story has always consisted of three things: A boy, a ball, and a dream. The boy with a ball began chasing his dream by dodging imaginary defenders in his parents’ backyard and cutting out pictures from Sports Illustrated for Kids magazine. The pursuit of his dream continued through the ranks and record books of the Orrville High School and Western Michigan University football programs, where Tim re-wrote the standards in virtually every major passing category. And his dream culminated in the National Football League, where Tim spent time with four teams, primarily the Indianapolis Colts.Today, Tim Hiller uses the platform of his celebrated football career to serve others—sharing his faith and experiences through speaking, writing, and his work with student-athletes—leaving a lasting impact on all who hear his powerful message. Hiller and his wife Michelle and son Daniel reside in Kalamazoo, Michigan, where he is employed by Stryker Corporation and is co-owner of Next Level Performance, LLC, which delivers sport-specific training with a primary focus on leadership and character development.
