Seattle Seahawks Super Bowl-winning quarterback Russell Wilson is crediting a dream he had about God as a teenager with changing his life.

"I had a dream that my dad passed away and then Jesus came into the room and he was basically knocking on my door saying, 'Hey, you need to find out more about me,'" Wilson reflects in a new documentary entitled The Making of a Champion.

"So that Sunday morning, I ended up going to church and that's when I got saved. When I was a young kid, I used to always go to church, my parents used to take me. I knew about God and stuff like that, but I was always playing sports and I was preoccupied with that part of my life."

"I realized that those dreams are really real," Wilson added. "I realized that God had given me so many talents and I wanted to give Him all the glory."

As for the Super Bowl victory Wilson led the Seahawks to, the franchise's first ever, he is also appreciative.

"God's given me so much talent and my height doesn't define my skill set," he said. "I believe that God has given me a right arm and for some reason even though I'm 5-foot-11 to be able to make the throws and make great decisions on the field and all that."
