Never Give Up (2023)
Brad Minns is a walking miracle, deaf since of age of three, Minns became the world’s best deaf tennis player in a comeback match that’s never been equalled on the Olympic, Collegiate, or Professional Stage. But this is more than a story about perseverance and overcoming obstacles, it’s a story of faith and God helping us to do our best against all odds. Minns’ story is not just about tennis, but learning how to put your trust in God and never give up no matter what you face.
