*A Theology of Baseball* \\ by Nancy Becker \\ /Text:/ Romans 3:21-26 \\ /Topic:/ How baseball illustrates the gospel \\ /Big Idea:/ Baseball demands perfection, but offers the grace of a second chance.
\\ /Keywords:/ Grace; Forgiveness; Perfection \\ \\ \\ \\ *Introduction: ** /Illustration:/ Becker grew up in a baseball family, and the addiction has been passed on to her.
* Baseball dramatically represents some of life's most important lessons.
*Baseball is about falling short of perfection.*
* Paul talked about the Law as a standard of perfection that is impossible to meet.
* Baseball players are judged by, and cannot escape from, their statistics.
* Baseball players are guaranteed to fail more often than they succeed.
\\ /-Illustration:/ Mickey Mantle struck out 1,710 times in his career, and he is an all time great.
* Life is like that: a hard, judging master of anyone who seeks to be good at it.
*Baseball is about grace.*
* In baseball, a game with no clock, there is always time for redemption.
\\ /-Illustration:/ San Francisco Giant Bob Brenley made four errors in one inning, but also hit two home runs, including the game winner.
* In life, grace means you always have another chance.
* Paul made a lot of errors in his life, but Jesus found him and turned him around.
* Jesus spent most of his time with people who had gone 0 for 4 in life.
* With Christ, we will always have another chance.
