MEN GOING ALL IN serves as a devotional for the Men's Ministry of Christian Sports International, a sports ministry that reaches out to men and children through sports in evangelism and discipleship. The book profiles eight former athletes and a former umpire who serve or served in the ministry with their career highlights and their faith stories. Each man has a unique story that will resonate with the reader to lead him to a deeper walk with Christ. The book includes discussion questions and devotionals for each day in a 9-week format and serves well as a study book for group study. Yet you can also use it as a personal devotional.
