Editorial Review:
Product Description:
Stories about athletes and coaches usually focus on their championships or their scandals. All the Good in Sports features 20 contemporary sports personalities who go beyond the headlines to candidly share how their relationship with Christ has helped them cope with a variety of difficulties, both professional and personal, and how in Christ they found victory in their personal lives. Many professing Christians in the sports world have achieved wealth and notoriety, but life s luxuries do not exempt them from life s difficulties. Name recognition and personal fortune cannot rescue one whose marriage is on the rocks, one facing substance abuse, or one facing disease or even death. The sports heroes featured in All the Good in Sports are not super human. They go through the same pendulum of emotions you and I do when life deals us a punch in the stomach. However, what they discover or rediscover is a God who is faithful and responsive in their time of need.

Mike Sandrolini takes a closer look and finds something spectacular to cheer about in his offering, "All the Good in Sports: True Stories That go Beyond the Headlines."
With twenty contemporary sports personalities, sportswriter Sandrolini goes behind the top scores and record breaking events to get ... Read More
