Sports Parables: Coaching Kingdom Principles Through Sports

Throughout the New Testament gospels, some of Jesus' most effective teachings were presented through the vehicle of parables--fictional stories that utilized relevant scenarios based on the current day and age.

In Sports Parables, Coach Ron Brown shares powerful modern-day analogies to help athletes, coaches, parents, and ministers deliver biblical truths from the practice field to the pulpit. Topics include fear, motivation, focus, unity, salvation, discipleship, evangelism, determination, deception, and spiritual hunger.
