A very good story about Coach Bryant meeting Reverend Robert Schuller on a plane. A long read but one you will enjoy on this Good Friday and Easter weekend.
As we got up from the table, I asked him one more thing, “Is that story about Bear Bryant on the airplane true?” and Dr. Schuller laughed, calling what happened one of the real highlights of his entire life.
People are still fascinated over Coach Bryant, the giant of a football coach who took “ordinary” boys and built a dynasty at the University of Alabama before he died in 1983. Not long ago he was named as the “Most Influential Man” in the 75-year history of the Southeastern Conference.
But what occurred in an airplane somewhere in the sky over California may have been his biggest victory and Dr. Schuller told me he will never forget it either.
