Irondale, AL (EWTN) –
Danny Abramowicz, former NFL all-pro wide receiver and
coach, has created a television show with EWTN Global
Catholic Network called “Crossing the Goal,” which uses a
sports show format to encourage men to get into spiritual
shape.
“On this show, we talk to men about the things that are
happening in their lives right now and we challenge them to
do something about it,” said Abramowicz, who played for the
New Orleans Saints and the 49ers. “Guys respond to a
challenge. The Lord will help them, but they have to admit
that something is not right in their life.”
Abramowicz – who ranked, in varying years, in the Top 10 for
receptions, receiving yards, and touchdowns – admits that he
is a former party boy whose life once revolved around his
ego and booze. He says he and his three co-hosts – Peter
Herbeck, vice-president of Renewal Ministries; Curtis
Martin, founder of Fellowship of Catholic University
Students; and professional broadcaster Brian Patrick –
provide real solutions to the spiritual challenges men face.
Segments include “The Kickoff,” where the problem of the day
is quickly presented; “The Game Plan,” where two team
members lay out the facts men need to know; “The Red Zone,”
where the team talks about how they’ve dealt with the
problem in their own lives, and “The End Zone,” where each
team member gives the audience a take-away for the week.
