Williams was the best hitter in baseball history. His batting average of .406 in 1941 has not been topped since, and no player who has hit more than 500 home runs has a higher career batting average. Those totals would have been even higher if Williams had not left baseball for nearly five years in the prime of his career to serve as a Marine pilot in WWII and Korea.

The truth behind our idols
Revisado: 05-23-24
Another reminder that the image or performance of those we revere should not be measured by persona or performance but by character and integrity. Williams was immortal on the diamond and fishing boat but broken, selfish, and wanting to those he should have invested in the most (his family). Its a tragic story of a fabled life.
The book is well written and well researched, the narrator is outstanding, but Ted’s life filled with hurt, anger, and neglect. Tragic.

Many people will remember Eric Liddell as the Olympic gold medalist from the Academy Award-winning film Chariots of Fire. Famously, Liddell would not run on Sunday because of his strict observance of the Christian Sabbath, and so he did not compete in his signature event, the 100 meters, at the 1924 Paris Olympics. He was the greatest sprinter in the world at the time, and his choice not to run was ridiculed by the British Olympic committee, his fellow athletes, and most of the world press.

In her late 30's, Rosaria encountered something that turned her world upside down - the idea that Christianity, a religion she had regarded as problematic, might be right about who God was. That idea seemed to fly in the face of the people and causes that she most loved. What follows is a story of what she describes as a train wreck at the hand of the supernatural. These are her secret thoughts about those events, written as only a reflective English professor could.

A Beautiful Story of Redemption, Grace, and Love
Revisado: 08-27-18
There are few stories that I have heard that have such raw emotion, thoughtful reflection, and biblical faithfulness. It is a wonderful encouragement and guide to how God’s grace defeats pride and uses his people to extend mercy and grace to a hurting world.

A Prophet with Honor is the biography Billy Graham himself invited and appreciated for its sympathetic but frank approach. Carefully documented, eminently fair, and gracefully written, it raises and answers key questions about Graham's character, contributions, and influence on the world religious scene. In this engaging and comprehensive book, William Martin gives readers a better understanding of the most successful evangelist in modern history, and the movement he led for over fifty years.

Honest and Informative
Revisado: 07-04-18
Martin’s biography is a faithful and honest look at the life of the evangelical evangelist. His story telling is through and informative. His reflection is frank and straight forward. I appreciate Martin’s in-depth cultural and theological background of the revivalism that set the stage for Graham and Graham’s political, theological, and personal strengths and weaknesses. Well worth the time listening.
