is possible to bring honor to God in the world of sports today. Christian

possible to hold fast to Christian values and be a competitive athlete? Is it
acceptable to let Christian values slide during competition? Dwayne K. Smith

AthleteHonoring God in Sports, a must read for every athlete, coach, fan, and
parent with children in sports. A coach himself, Smith combines stories and
humor with powerful insights on subjects that athletes and coaches deal with on
a regular basis, such as handling failure, battling laziness, and glorifying God
with our bodies. Take a time out to become The Christian Athlete you were meant
to behonoring God in the sports you love!
