Pat Summerall: On and Off the Air

I had the privilege and honor of sitting and talking with the legendary Pat Summerall yesterday for PowerLunch, the weekly luncheon we host at Prestonwood that features a great lineup of guest speakers. It was just like sitting in my living room ... only we had more than 850 people there with us!

As a member of our church, I’m still caught by surprise when I hear that unforgettable signature voice of his in our hallways on a Sunday morning. That smooth baritone and great knowledge of sports, as a former professional football player and outstanding tennis and baseball player, led to an amazing broadcast career that spans four decades. He could tell a lot of stories—and believe me, I’ve heard many of them and they are unbelievable—but it’s the story of what God has done in his life that he loves telling most.
