Tennessee quarterback Hendon Hooker can now add “author” to his list of titles. Earlier this week, he and his brother, Alston Hooker, announced the release of a new Scripture book for athletes that they co-created.It's a great idea, but no doubt, some are bound to be rightly concerned whether it could truly sell in an era where far-left politics have astonishingly plagued mainstream sports to the point where it's exceedingly difficult to enjoy them at all. And that'd be a valid worry indeed. I wish the sportsman good luck selling his new comics-style take on biblical themes, but it shouldn't surprise anybody if today's politicized atmosphere could make it hard to market successfully. It's a terrible shame it came to this, courtesy of a long failure to be vigilant and oppose politicization properly.
“The ABC’s of Scripture for Athletes” is a comic-book style book filled some of their favorite Scriptures and is now available for pre-order. It’s tailored toward young athletes and there are also companion flashcards available.
Because if we're going to try and stop the misuse of our favorite comics and their protagonists by the companies that write and publish them, we've got to see what both the printed and online comics news is doing wrong. This blog focuses on both the good and the bad, the newspaper media and the online websites. Unabashedly. Unapologetically. Scanning the media for what's being done right and what's being done wrong.
