On this episode of Our American Stories, Darryl Strawberry reached the heights of Major League Baseball, but success could not heal the wounds he carried from childhood. Raised with an abusive, alcoholic father, Strawberry says rejection and anger helped drive him toward greatness on the field while leaving him vulnerable to addiction, broken relationships, and a life that eventually spiraled far beyond his control.

Strawberry shares the story of how faith changed the course of his life, how his wife Tracy challenged him to stop defining himself by the uniform he once wore, and how forgiveness finally brought him face-to-face with the father who had hurt him most. Darryl's book is Turn Your Season Around: How God Transforms Your Life, be sure to check it out!
