ABOUT THE ATHLETE DEVOTIONAL: 40 DAYS OF SPIRITUAL PRACTICE
The Athlete Devotional offers a devotional for student-athletes and the athletic community that is grounded in progressive theology, character and identity formation, and ancient spiritual practices.
The authors and editors of this book are LGBTQ+ affirming pastors and Christians, and so this devotional not only seeks to meet athletes at the intersection of faith and sports, but additionally offers loving and affirming theology for all people.
