Listen To What Heroes Copywriter Ray Edwards Says When He Answers the Heroes Question “Who are the HEROES in your life now?”
Ray Edwards: There is one that I want to be certain that I mention and that is my son. He is 19 years old and I just get choked up talking about it because I am so proud of that young man.
He is not only handsome, but he is incredibly intelligent. I used to think I was the smart one in the family and I think that God sent my son along to put my in my place and teach me some humility.
He is incredibly intelligent and he is such a good person. Sometimes my wife and I will marvel and think, “How did such a good person manage to come from us?” because he humbles us. He is kind and generous. He is hard working.
He has a wonderful work ethic. Even as we speak right now, he is in Amsterdam on a mission trip. This is spring break while we are talking right now. While his friends are on the beach in Mexico exploring new depths of debauchery, my son is with a group of young like minded people in Amsterdam taking the good news to people who many have never heard it before.
I admire him. He has a wonderful girlfriend that he has been dating now for quite some time. The maturity of their relationship, I look back at my own early relationships with the opposite sex and I just did not have the kind of mature grasp on relationships that young guy has.
So, I don’t know if that is weird or not, but he is definitely a hero in my life.
