Synopses & Reviews
Every athlete needs a coach. An experienced mentor can help even the clumsiest novice ascend to new heights of sports mastery. But where to find such counsel? Maybe . . . just possibly, from the Savior? Activities with Jesus and such familiar biblical names as Moses and John the Baptist include: perfecting the almighty slam dunk, taking a high-dive leap of faith, and a tug-of-war of biblical proportions. Slyly irreverent but ultimately festive, the book is illustrated in full color. Best of all, two of the adventures (surfing and tug-of-war) are animated for full effect by a lenticular cover and last-spread finale!
Synopsis
Slyly irreverent series of sporting activities with Jesus, each humorously described in biblical terms.
