Description

The Soul of Baseball: A Road Trip Through Buck O'Neil's AmericaWhen legendary Negro League player Buck O'Neil asked Joe Posnanski how he fell in love with baseball, the renowned sports columnist was inspired by the question. He decided to spend the 2005 baseball season touring the country with the ninety four year old O'Neil in hopes of rediscovering the love that first drew them to the game. The Soul of Baseball is as much the story of Buck O'Neil as it is the story of baseball. Driven by a relentless optimism

When legendary Negro League player Buck O'Neil asked Joe Posnanski how he fell in love with baseball, the renowned sports columnist was inspired by the question. He decided to spend the 2005 baseball season touring the country with the ninety-four-year-old O'Neil in hopes of rediscovering the love that first drew them to the game.

The Soul of Baseball is as much the story of Buck O'Neil as it is the story of baseball. Driven by a relentless optimism and his two great passions--for America's pastime and for jazz, America's music--O'Neil played solely for love. In an era when greedy, steroid-enhanced athletes have come to characterize professional ball, Posnanski offers a salve for the damaged spirit: the uplifting life lessons of a truly extraordinary man who never missed an opportunity to enjoy and love life.

Great comparison!
Format: Paperback
These five views are given in the words of their own proponents. Each view is then critiqued by the other four authors. These authors seem to be leaders in the denominations representing each position. This book is for the theological heavy-weight reader. It is desirable to the seminarian who knows the terminology and nuances of the theological standpoints. It does have devotional value in turning the reader to God.

More than a library filler
Format: Hardcover
Wayne Grudem’s Christian Ethics is a thorough guide for thinking through real life moral questions from a clear biblical perspective. I originally bought this book because I thought it would look good for a display of books. I was pleasantly surprised as I began to read it. The book is detailed and the chapters are laid out in a way that makes it easy to dip into specific topics as needed, which is helpful for pastors, teachers, and laypeople alike. I especially appreciate how Grudem consistently grounds his arguments in Scripture and explains how he reaches his conclusions. His writing is clear, practical, and often pastoral in tone, rather than academic. If you are looking for a comprehensive, conservative evangelical resource on Christian ethics that takes the authority of the Bible seriously and applies it to a wide range of modern issues, this book is a valuable addition to your library...not just a decoration piece.

A Must-Read for Today’s Christian!
Format: Hardcover
Absolutely LOVE this book. So useful when considering Christian Ethics, and I feel he presents multiple arguments as fairly as one can expect. Pleased with how many sources and Biblical references were included as well. Will forever recommend reading this book!
