Are you a young athlete seeking to understand your passion for sport in the context of God’s Word? Are you a pastor seeking personally to walk in victory or lead your congregation to live according to the promises of God? Are you a youth group leader wanting to teach the promises of God in a fresh way with a relevant and timely metaphor that connects to your local community? Are you a leader of a small group, local Christian club, or community/school ministry, such as the Fellowship of Christian Athletes or Athletes in Action, looking for the next right material to take your people through that is both biblical and applicable to daily life? Whether you need a 40-day devotional for Lent, or a motivational book to work with your fellow athletes on a team, this book is right on time for you. It can also be utilized as a Bible study resource that helps you meditate on a promise of God per week throughout the year. However you use this book, accept the challenge today, and you will live like a champion for Christ!

Dr. Jerry Ingalls integrates his depth of biblical studies, years of pastoral experience, and extensive athletic background to teach you how to live the victorious life of Jesus Christ, by daily believing God according to His promises. Having already tested this material in a local church, Jerry’s desire is to see you use this book to live like a champion for Christ, today, by training yourself for godliness according to this proven training regimen that will take you deeply into the Word of God, so that you can apply the promises of God in your daily life. Jerry writes with the same passion that he also demonstrated in training to be an Academic All-American at West Point, going from being a walk-on to a team captain, leading Army to beat Navy, winning the Patriot League championships, and a setting both the United States Military Academy and Patriot League records in the hammer throw, both of which have stood, unthreatened, for over 25 years. Jerry went on to compete at the national and international levels, competing as a member of Team USA, culminating in two USA Track & Field Olympic Team Trials berths, in 1996 & 2000. Jerry has applied the same devotion of a champion to grow as a passionate follower of Jesus over the last 25 years, and as a faithful pastor for nearly two decades, and he wants to coach you on how to do the same! As Pastor Jerry likes to say, “You are a member of God’s championship team, now live like a champion today!”

Dr. Jerry Ingalls built this work on the athletic imagery of the New Testament, anchored it in the expository study of 2 Peter 1’s teaching of “His precious and magnificent promises,” and applied it through his intensive pastoral study of how to personally and corporately train for godliness through 40 promises of God found in the Bible. You, as well as the other members of God’s team in your local church or community, can learn to apply every Word of God to your daily life through an intensive 40-day training regimen, called “The 40 Promises in 40 Days Challenge!" This book will not only ground you deeply in the Bible, which is meant to be studied, memorized, and then applied so that you can experience God’s victory for your life today, but it will also give you the training regimen necessary to deeply root the promises of God into your heart and mind so that you can live like a champion today, and every day, for the rest of your life, to the glory of God!
