Important concepts are best understood by analogies with familiar experiences. When Jesus walked this earth, He taught the people using parables about eating and drinking, farming and fishing, and seeds and treasures.

The author of this book is an old Christian who has devoted his life to teaching and coaching. He here seeks to draw parallels between athletics and the Christian life, thereby offering insight into both.

Topics include hopes and fears, faith and trust, submission, teamwork, practice, challenges, paying the price, and the coach-player relationship.

The reader will enjoy the imagery as he gains insight into both sports and life.
