Kelly Smith – författare

All Kelly Smith ever wanted to be was a footballer. Blessed with brilliant talent which she honed with hours of practice, it was soon clear to all who saw her that Kelly was the best women’s footballer that this country had ever produced. Yet for this shy girl from Watford, it would be a long and difficult journey to the pinnacle of the world game, and one which would involve the hardest of challenges.After starting drinking to mask her loneliness thousands of miles from home in the United States, a series of career-threatening injuries led to severe depression and a battle with alcoholism. But with the fighting spirit that was so essential on her path to be Britain’s first women’s professional player, Kelly bounced back to inspire Arsenal to countless trophies and become England’s record goalscorer.Footballer: My Story is the inspirational tale of a woman with a drive to succeed. It is the unique inside story of a star in a sport enjoyed by millions yet often not granted the recognition it deserves. And as she nears the end of a glittering playing career, it is the story of how Kelly Smith became what she always wanted to be. A professional footballer, in a professional league.

PRAISE FOR THE FIRST HORSEMAN"e;One of the most exciting books I have ever read. I couldn't find anything wrong with its thesis."e; — Jeffrey F."e;Thought-provoking, with amazing knowledge of the scriptures. This book has had a deep impact on me."e; — John C."e;A great book and life changing. A must read!"e; — Amelia L.This book was written to save your life. I do not say that lightly.The world is entering a period of difficulty unlike anything in recorded history. Wars, economic collapse, famine, plague, and persecution are coming on a scale most people cannot yet imagine. The ancient prophets saw all of it, and they recorded their warnings so that you and I would have time to prepare.But this is not a book of despair. It is a book of hope.These pages make the scriptural case that the prophecies of Revelation, Isaiah, and Latter-day scripture are not distant or merely symbolic. They are unfolding right now, in our generation, and one man stands at the center of them: Donald Trump.Drawing on the Book of Revelation, the writings of Isaiah, the Book of Mormon, and modern revelation, this book walks you through the prophetic pattern of God's chosen servants. It examines the seven seals, the marred servant, the birth of the kingdom of God, and the protection God has promised His people in the last days. It shows why so much of what is happening in the world today was written down thousands of years ago.You do not need a theological degree to understand it. You do not need to belong to any particular church. You need only a willingness to weigh what the scriptures say and let them speak to your heart.I wrote this for the mother worried about her children's future. I wrote it for the father who feels the world slipping out of control. I wrote it for anyone who senses that something is coming and wants to understand what the days ahead will hold.The darkness is temporary. The glory is permanent. And you were meant to be part of it.
