Kelly Tough

Written by Erin Kelly with Jill Kelly, this inspiring book shares what it truly means to be “Kelly Tough.” It’s not about physical strength or fame, but about faith that endures through hardship. Erin writes candidly about growing up in the public eye, her father’s battle with cancer, and her family’s journey through loss and healing. It’s a story of courage, grace, and the power of hope that only God can give.

Do not let the title Kelly Tough fool you. This is not a “be all you can be, no pain–no gain” story. Toughness is overrated. And being Kelly Tough, well, you are about to find out what that really means and why it just might matter to you.

Kelly Tough is a story of love and hope: a love between a father and a daughter—Buffalo Bill’s former quarterback, Jim Kelly, and his oldest daughter Erin. Erin shares a deeply personal account of the love a family can have for each other during the darkest times, and a greater love that a heavenly Father has for you.

Whatever circumstance or heartbreak you find yourself overwhelmed by right now, it is not the end of the story. In fact, it just might be one of the greatest chapters as you, like the Kelly’s, find strength in weakness, hope in the midst of heartache, and joy in spite of suffering.
