Publisher's summary

The Christian Athlete is a gospel-centered guide that assists athletes who identify as Christians and are seeking to understand how to practically apply their faith to their sport.

Athletes desire—and deserve—a more substantive expression of the Christian faith in the context of sport, but they don’t know what it looks like or where to turn to learn more.

Author Brian Smith shares his story as an athlete and coach, and his experience working with high-level athletes in the last decade to help listeners better understand how to integrate faith and sport by:

  • Assisting those who want a wide-angled understanding of how to live the Christian faith in the context of sports
  • Walking through the many questions Christian athletes ask about winning, losing, injuries, practice, and everything in between
  • Moving Christian athletes from simply having clichéd spiritual sayings decorating their bodies or t-shirts to actually living out their faith through all the opportunities their sport offers them

The Christian Athlete will show listeners how to live out a biblical perspective on athletics and urge them to engage in the gifts they are given to glorify God whether they are the team MVP or riding the bench.

Best book on this subject I’ve ever read

I loved it. I am a pastor with athletic kids. I’ve thought about writing them a book to guide them on this journey. I will not write a book. This says it all, and more, and better. This book is excellent. I’ll be recommending it to COUNTLESS people.
