Ed Tandy - Giants

Pastor Ed McGlasson is the founder and executive director of The Blessing of The Father Ministries. He is a pastor, best-selling author, renowned conference and corporate event speaker, and a five-year veteran in the National Football League. As a former lineman in the NFL, Ed played with the Giants, the Jets, and the Rams.

Ed’s call to ministry began in college, after being healed from a career-ending knee injury that led to his conversion and faith in Christ. Ed details his life in his best-selling book The Difference A Father Makes, including the loss of his heroic military dad in a tragic U.S. Navy plane crash in 1956. This book has changed thousands of readers' lives with over 450,000 copies sold since its release in 2004. The Difference a Father Makes has also been translated into Spanish. Ed has since authored two other highly acclaimed books: Be Loved (2009) and The Father You’ve Always Wanted (2013).

The Blessing of the Father Ministries strike the core of an epidemic: A fatherless society. Ed believes it can be addressed and healed through the hope found in the blessing of God our Father. 

Ed resides in Southern California with his wife, Jill. Together, they have five adult children with four more through marriage and 11 amazing grandchildren.
