Biography
Rick Burgess is the cohost of the nationally syndicated radio show, “The Rick Burgess Show.” (He previously co-hosted “The Rick and Bubba” show for 31 years.) He has authored “Sin Always Matters: The Cost of Sin and the Power of Grace” and “Transformed: Embracing the Death of Self and the Power of God,” as well as co-authoring coauthored multiple New York Times bestselling books and the “How To Be A Man” series of devotionals. As a commentator and guest, Rick has appeared on various radio and television shows, including Fox and Friends and the Sean Hannity Show. Rick is a frequent speaker at church services and marriage conferences, but his true passion is men’s ministry. As Founder of “The Man Church,” Rick calls on the modern church to put into practice what they say every Father’s Day, that a man’s family will follow him if he leads them.
Rick has been married to the former Sherri Bodine since 1996. Rick’s Spirit-filled message at his youngest son’s memorial service was the most-watched YouTube video in the world the week it was posted.

Men Don't Run In the Rain: A Son's Reflections on Life, Faith, and an Iconic Father
by Rick Burgess
Few things shape a life more profoundly than the lessons of a father.
William "Bill" Burgess was a larger-than-life personality. This was displayed on football fields across the Southeast, first as a player at Auburn University and later as a championship-winning coach at the high school and collegiate levels. But he was also a father.
His son, New York Times best-selling author and nationally syndicated radio host Rick Burgess, had a front-row seat to this legendary man who had a way with words like few others. Through rich storytelling, Rick Burgess captures his father's many colorful sayings and stories, taking them a step further by cleverly and clearly communicating the spiritual truths behind each one.
"Men Don't Run In the Rain" is a timeless reflection on the kind of man they simply don't make anymore.
