Man Does Not Live by Sports Alone: Devotions for Men

I love the quotation from Billy Graham in the opening pages of this book: "Whatever you love most. Be it sports, pleasure, business or God. That is your god." It's true most men live and breath sports and if it's playing on television, then you have it turned on in your home. Here's the perfect gift for this type of person because it uses sports examples to spur godly living. Thirty devotions or chapters are included and each one includes a series of thought-provoking questions (called the warmup) followed by a brief devotion (called going deep, with a recap (a summary thought), an "in the huddle" section (where you consider the application to the devotional thought), a game plan (where you pick up some ideas to apply it to your life), and finally a page called game notes, where you write your personal thoughts from the reading. Anyone can complete a chapter in a few minutes--either early in the morning or on a lunch break or in the evening. Each chapter is well-written and applicable to any sports-loving man.
