This is not a book of opinions as such.You already have your own. You don't need mine.Rather, it's a collection of thoughts on subjects that I personally think are worth thinking about-core values of a sort. The intent of the content is to stir you to consider some certain things from another point of view than the one(s) you currently have.If reading it prompts you to think, then I've done my job. My goal is to make the data available for private and public pondering.

For professional athletes, sports is an occupation. For most of us, sports is recreation. Either way, God created every detail of your life, including how you relax, play, compete, and re-create. Whether you are learning to value of teamwork, training your body for an individual sport, or just enjoying family time with a backyard game of badminton, the Scriptures offer compelling parallels to your spiritual journey.In Devotions from Everyday Sports author Tammy Chandler connects spiritual truths to the world of sports, and encourages us to find the eternal along the way.
"In the World You Will Have Tribulation."These words of Christ have never been more true! Wars. Rumors of wars. Earthquakes. Tsunami. Political Upheaval. Financial collapse. Rampant wickedness, greed, selfishness. Moral decay on a scale not imaginable even a generation ago. We live in testing times.The real question is: Are we mature enough to trust God through testing times, even as the world grows spiritually darker? Are we patient enough to wait for God's deliverance, even when the storm rages around us? Are we prepared enough to walk through a crisis, and not blame God for it? Have we considered that these "testing times" may not be designed to break us, but to purify us?The books of James, Job, and 1 & 2 Thessalonians lay a foundation for dealing with life's trials and tests:James gives us practical advice for spiritual maturity.Job offers an incredible example of God's sovereignty.Paul's letters to the Thessalonians provide practical action steps for during times of persecution.The same Christ who acknowledge the inevitability of the world's tribulations, also confidently declare, "Be of good cheer! I have overcome the world!" Because Christ has overcome, He has made you an overcomer as well.
