With the Olympics almost upon us, Richard Daly has written 100 inspirational thoughts on taking part in the race, the journey, which is our Christian life. As he says, the spirit of the Olympic Games can be characterised in the creed written by its modern founder, Baron Pierre De Coubertin: 'The most important thing in the Olympic games is not to win but to take part, just as the most important thing in life is not the triumph but the struggle. The essential thing is not to have conquered but to have fought well.' He reminds us that likewise we are indeed all winners if we are taking part in the Christian race, that by enduring we triumph and, if we have fought well, we conquer. In this small attractive book, each thought, with a Bible verse, will both comfort you and challenge you to become a true winner.

    The Good Book Stall

    Average rating of0.0

    Gold in colour and in quality, this little book has a thought and a Bible quotation on each page relating in some way to running the race of life. The Olympic creed stresses that the most important thing is ‘not to win but to take part, just as the most important thing in life is not the triumph but the struggle. The essential thing is not to have conquered but to have fought well.’ A creed we would do well to remember in our daily lives and this little book is here to help you. A book to dip into, a book to read and re-read. One I shall give to my granddaughter but one that is suitable for any age or circumstance.
