Finishing Well

A guide to training for the race of life

By Jim Chapman

Overview

With humor, wit, and keen insight Jim Chapman offers a guide to the Christian life that reminds us that starting strong is important but finishing well is the goal. As I read through these pages, one moment I found myself laughing out loud, and the next I was struck by the profound simplicity of its wisdom. I recommend Finishing Well for every Christian who seeks to “throw off everything that hinders, and run with perseverance the race marked out for us.” (Hebrews 12:1 NIV)

David A. Busic General Superintendent for the Church of the Nazarene

Description

"Finishing Well" reminds us of the parallels between the disciplines of training for an distance race and following Christ. Chapman recounts his experiences of training for his first half marathon - the struggle, the search for motivation, being accountable, and the desire to "Finish Well." If you are new to the faith or interested in starting a running/fitness program, reading this book can help remind you that it, or anything you commit to pursuing, CAN be done if you'll keep your focus on the author of our faith. Kent Ogle, Run for God instructor
