Opis

How do pawn structures reflect God's calling of the weak and unworthy? Does the queening of a pawn in the endgame foreshadow our transformation at the end of all things? Explore these and other intriguing questions in the pages of "Chess Devotionals: Thirty-One Meditations To Help Bring Play And Pray Together." Tournament veteran and theologian Norman Styers relates chess concepts to Christian spirituality in an engaging and stimulating way. Gain unique insights that will enable you to see chess from a fresh point of view. "Soon after I began studying chess and playing on a more serious level, I found myself applying 'chess principles' to other areas of my life. It seemed a logical evolution that the tools such as tactics, planning and strategy I was learning on the chess board could be leveraged elsewhere. Dr. Styers has taken yet another logical step. He has drawn from the elements of chess to illuminate the many facets of Christ in the life of the believer. A logical and thought-provoking read." -- Thomas McCaslin
