The Christian Athlete
In this day and age, competition, most visibly in sports, often brings out the worst in people. Many athletes and fans seem compelled to do things that cheat sports of their purpose-of God's purpose. This leads Christians to wonder how it is possible to bring honor to God in the world of sports today. Christian athletes in every sport have to ask: What is the true function of sports? Is it possible to hold fast to Christian values and be a competitive athlete? Is it acceptable to let Christian values slide during competition? Dwayne K. Smith answers these questions and more in his exceptional book, The Christian Athlete-Honoring God in Sports, a must read for every athlete, coach, fan, and parent with children in sports. A coach himself, Smith combines stories and humor with powerful insights on subjects that athletes and coaches deal with on a regular basis, such as handling failure, battling laziness, and glorifying God with our bodies. Take a time out to become The Christian Athlete you were meant to be-honoring God in the sports you love
Such Color
“Tracy K. Smith’s poetry is an awakening itself.” —Vogue Celebrated for its extraordinary intelligence and exhilarating range, the poetry of Tracy K. Smith opens up vast questions. Such Color: New and Selected Poems, her first career-spanning volume, traces an increasingly audacious commitment to exploring the unknowable, the immense mysteries of existence. Each of Smith’s four collections moves farther outward: when one seems to reach the limits of desire and the body, the next investigates the very sweep of history; when one encounters death and the outer reaches of space, the next bears witness to violence against language and people from across time and delves into the rescuing...

Worldly Things
Finalist for the 2022 Minnesota Book Award in Poetry “Sometimes,” Michael Kleber-Diggs writes in this winner of the Max Ritvo Poetry Prize, “everything reduces to circles and lines.” In these poems, Kleber-Diggs names delight in the same breath as loss. Moments suffused with love—teaching his daughter how to drive; watching his grandmother bake a cake; waking beside his beloved to ponder trumpet mechanics—couple with moments of wrenching grief—a father’s life ended by a gun; mourning children draped around their mother’s waist; Freddie Gray’s death in police custody. Even in the refuge-space of dreams, a man calls the police on his Black neighbor. But Worldly Things refus...
