In England, be it soccer at Wembley, tennis at Wimbledon, racing
at Ascot or rugby at Murrayfield, the British are a nation of
sports lovers. And it is not just the British – worldwide, cricket
and football are followed by millions of people, as an interest, a
hobby, an escape or a career. Can we learn anything from their
world? Yes, according to Jeff Lucas – and he has St Paul on his
side. Drawing on the Bible’s rich store of sporting metaphors and
similes, Jeff reveals their lessons for life and faith. From
keeping going when we want to give up, to dealing with failure –
and even success – there is plenty here to help you on your race to
the finish.
