Ingrained

Ingrained is a collection of over fifty stories about how five family members each found a way to reach the highest level in their respective sports. Its disjointed biographical short-story format will take you behind the curtain into life as a kid of the Chapdelaines through the eyes of their middle child, Matt.

Ingrained is for parents, teens, young adults, mentors, coaches, athletes, and fans alike. The lessons and stories range from helpful reminders of oft-neglected wisdomisms to thought-provoking clich busters and even out-of-the-box perspectives on some of the trickiest issues such as growing up, finding yourself, and grappling with what you believe. Topics include thoughts on competition, courage, will, values, tenacity, decision-making, coachability, growing up, manhood, family, faith, and so much more.

This heartfelt, funny, emotional, challenging, convicting, and liberating journey will unveil the most formative moments in Matts path to becoming the man he is today; it will illuminate the power of ones story and provoke you to consider the power hidden in your own.

With its short chapter lengths, this page-turner will appeal to both the reader who consumes books whole and the reader who likes to nibble a little bit at a time. The short but saturated stories will take you from root to fruit in the Chapdelaine family tree and give you insights into the life lessons, core values, coming-of-age moments, and powerful truths that have culminated in the secret to their success.
