- Synopsis
- There are books on how to worship God with our marriages, our money, and our sex lives. Books on how to &“think biblically&” about movies, television, and the arts. Books on how to vote Christianly and how not to vote Christianly. But there is little thoughtful, Christ-centered writing on the subject that drives most of men&’s banter with each other and consumes the bulk of their free time- Sports.Written in the vein of Rick Reilly (Sports Illustrated), Chuck Klosterman (Spin, Esquire), and David Foster Wallace (A Supposedly Fun Thing I&’ll Never Do Again), The Reason for Sports will both entertain and shed light on some of today&’s most pertinent sports issues (race, drugs, hero worship, and more)- all through a biblical lens.e drowns puppies, or that you should cheer for all American QB Tim Tebow because he etches a Bible verse on his eye-black before every game. I&’ll let you draw your own conclusions about all of these people. But I&’ll invite you to begin formulating your own theology of sports with me.
