"I love the sense of satisfaction that I get when I’ve done a swimming workout or race, and know that I gave my whole being and heart to God in every moment of the swim. It’s the best worship I can offer him."

Return to the book list for this category.

The disciplines of the Christian life, Eric Liddell, Triangle/SPCK, London 1985 ISBN 0-281-03195-4 (157 pages)

A basic discipleship book written by Eric Liddell and edited and published 40 years after his death. After an introduction "What is discipleship?" there are 12 chapters - one for each month - on God, Life of Jesus, Character of Jesus etc. This is followed by section "The disciple and the church".

Material added to the original includes a remembrance of Eric Liddell and bizarrely, a defence of infant baptism

I have not read it from cover to cover but have found no reference to sport or running.
