About the Author

Max T. Engel is a theologian and writer whose work bridges the worlds of faith and athletics, offering profound insights into the spiritual dimensions of human endeavor. With a background in Catholic theology and a lifelong passion for sports, Engel explores how physical activity reflects divine principles of creation, community, and redemption.

Drawing from scripture, tradition, and personal anecdotes from the playing field, Engel's writing invites readers to see everyday pursuits through a lens of eternal significance.
