Reflections from the Home Team... NEARING HOME! includes reflections from the author that share an encouraging attitude, a spiritual insight, and a step to consider at the end of each reflection. The author's thoughts are frequently blended with baseball analogies and metaphors. Life's challenges are not easy, just as baseball is not always easy. Life truly is like a baseball game...when you think a fastball is coming, you have to be ready to hit the curve!

The game of baseball provides many lessons about success and failure, and those lessons can so often be applied in our life journeys. This book focuses on those lessons and can be used as a daily reflection to find a way forward, one step at a time whenever you may feel discouraged or need a boost. May we all choose to seek out others with a kind smile, a kind word, a listening ear, or an honest compliment as we each face the reality that at some point in our lives...we hope to be sliding headfirst into the 'dwelling place of perfect happiness' as we get closer to "NEARING HOME" on our life's journey.
