Amusing and Thought-provoking Parallels Between the Bible and Baseball
This book manages to be entertaining and educational, as well as fanciful and inspirational. It draws from the lives of Jesus Christ and Yogi Berra, Joseph of Nazareth and Joe DiMaggio, Moses and Hank Aaron, Saint Peter and Jackie Robinson. And God Said, "Play Ball!" makes the Bible more approachable by relating it to a game loved by both children and adults. It shows that baseball is not only a game, but a never-ending series of lessons about life, as well. And God Said, "Play Ball!" will appeal to Christian Athletes of any denomination.
The author has been a baseball fan for more than forty years and a Catholic a lot longer than that. He has played, coached, watched, or taught baseball since he was seven years old. more...Item # 39558

Amusing Thought Provoking Parallels Between the Bible and Golf
Where do we encounter God? For the Christian - certainly - there is the Bible. For the committed golfer - at least when the drives are carrying and the putts are falling - there are the links. Gary Graf has brought the two together with a scorecard full of "amusing and thought-provoking parallels between the Bible and golf."
And God Said, "Tee it up!" takes readers on an entertaining tour of the worlds of golf and Scripture, revealing the many connections they share. In eighteen "Holes" you'll walk some of golf's greatest courses, including Oakmont and Oak Hill, Pebble Beach and Pinehurst, Saint Andrews and Spyglass Hill, and of course Augusta National, home of the Masters. more...Item # 80096

Amusing & Thought-provoking Parallels Between the Bible & Food
Sit back, relax, and enjoy a fascinating exploration of the power, meaning, and importance that food holds in the Scriptures. As author Gary Graf notes, "with references to everything from coriander and cinnamon to pomegranates and lamb, the Good Book could very easily be called the Food Book."
In previous books in the And God Said series, Graf has illuminated the connections between sports and the Bible, but in And God Said, "Let's Eat!" he delves into a topic much closer to our hearts...and our stomachs. After all, not only were food and wine a large part of the social and religious customs of biblical times, but Jesus and the prophets often used them to explain spiritual concepts. more...Item # 16675
