This was the first great baseball book I read as an early teen. I knew in an instant I wanted to be a baseball historian of the deadball era (ca 1876–1920).      source

Gentle and Lowly
The Heart of Christ for Sinners and Sufferers
Dane C. Ortlund - 2020-04-07
Goodreads Rating
Discover a refreshing take on the love of God in this book that delves into the heart of Jesus Christ for his people. Drawing from Matthew 11, the author challenges the common notion that God is perpetually disappointed with us and hides his disappointment behind the cross. Instead, this book reminds us that the gospel is primarily about God's tender love for his people, even amidst their sins and failures. With insightful Bible passages and moving anecdotes, this book reveals the irresistible gentleness and lowliness of Jesus' heart for sinners, offering comfort and hope to those in need.

This book explores the complex subject of end-of-life care in America, where 80% of people die in institutions such as hospitals.

It simplifies medical jargon and provides biblical principles to help individuals and families navigate the transition from this life to the next.
