What can Jesus teach you about golf? If you love golf and the Lord or want to know more about either this book of devotionals is for you. Written by an amateur who knows something about both golf and the Lord, Golf By the Books relates the two topics in ways that inform, entertain and illuminate. Harry Underwood integrates information from the USGA's The Rules of Golf and the Bible. Here is the opportunity to learn and reflect on the game of golf while, at the same time, praising and meditating on God and God's creation. You can skim these 52 devotionals quickly for entertainment. Then, for spiritual nourishment, go back and savor each one, reflecting on the enjoyment of sport and the majesty of the Lord who created the terra firma to play upon as well as the creatures that play upon it. Golfers, spouses of golfers and all who want to learn more about the game will find inspiration. Through the use of comparisons and illustrations, the devotionals link actions and observations on the course with life lessons grounded in the Holy Scriptures.

Harry Underwood has earned the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Biblical Studies and has provided lay leadership within Presbyterian and Methodist churches. For more than thirty-five years, he has taught small group Bible studies and Sunday School classes. He and his wife Nancy live and golf in Winston-Salem, North Carolina.
