There Is a Balm for That

Christians who are professional athletes often speak of their performance stages as being platforms to inspire and spread the love of Christ. Well, this is Regina Tates platform to inspire and to spread the Good News. The book is encouragement and motivation to get beyond and through everyday issues and problems, using the Word of God. In addition, she shares some accounts of athletes and other well-known people doing admirable or not-so-admirable things to help push across the messages of encouragement. The stories about athletes and others are used to help illustrate or paint word-pictures for inspiration as part of a particular message. Included are references to athletes such as LeBron James, Bethany Hamilton, Michael Vick, Barry Sanders, Pete Carroll and Michael Jordan, as well as stories about other notable public figures such as Malala Yousafzai . Regina combines her love of sports with her love of the Lord to inspire and encourage those of us who are on the Lords side and others who are looking for reasons to trust in God. And there is no need to worry if you are not a sports fan. The references enhance the primary messages of inspiration; the main thing is still the main thing. Reginas prayer is that this book will give you a bit of motivation and inspiration by telling and reminding you that God is always pulling for you to get to the other side of through!
