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 readers 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 clich?d 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 readers 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.

Industry Reviews

"One of the things I love about Brian's writing is that it comes from years of experience as an athlete and a minister to and with athletes. In this book, Brian draws on that experience to provide a thoughtful and practical guide to the questions, concerns, and issues that many Christian athletes wrestle with as they try to live out their faith in sports. The Christian Athlete is an excellent addition to the growing conversation on Christian engagement with sports, useful for both athletes and those who work with them."--Paul Putz, PhD, assistant director of the Faith & Sports Institute
