Many men are attracted to outdoor sports because of the time it gives them alone in God's creation--time to rest, reflect, and refresh before returning to the everyday stresses of work, family life, finances, and more. "Faith Afield" is their guide to making this time in God's country last when they return home.
This unique devotional, geared primarily toward men, uses illustrations and principles from hunting, shooting, and fishing sports, giving sportsmen new insights into truths from Scripture and challenging them in their walk with God. Each devotion leaves the outdoorsman with a specific life application on topics such as:
-the importance of authentic living
-putting on the whole armor of God
-overcoming obstacles in life
-the key to avoiding sexual temptations
-focusing on that which is most important
The perfect gift for the hunter, fisherman, or gun enthusiast, "Faith Afield" will challenge men as it brings them closer to God.

George Takei has captured hearts and minds worldwide with his captivating stage presence and outspoken commitment to equal rights. But long before he braved new frontiers in Star Trek, he woke up as a fouryearold boy to find his own birth country at war with his father's and their entire family forced from their home into an uncertain future. In 1942, at the order of President Franklin D. Roosevelt, every person of Japanese descent on the west coast was rounded up and shipped to one of ten "relocation centers," hundreds or thousands of miles from home, where they would be held for years under armed guard. They Called Us Enemy is Takei's firsthand account of those years behind barbed wire, the joys and terrors of growing up under legalized racism, his mother's hard choices, his father's faith in democracy, and the way those experiences planted the seeds for his astonishing future. What is American? Who gets to decide? When the world is against you, what can one person do? To answer these questions, George Takei joins cowriters Justin Eisinger & Steven Scott and artist Harmony Becker for the journey of a lifetime.
