Download or read book A Blessed Big Day written by Ralph E Brown and published by Doorlight Publications. This book was released on 2010-12-09 with total page 74 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Blessed Big Day brings together more than fifty years of Ralph Brown's Christmas poems. These poems arise from a variety of places, cultures and circumstances. But while the subject matter of these verses spans the globe from villages of southern Pakistan to the woods of Royalston, Massachusetts, and ranges across an emotional scale from exhilaration to deep pain, they all reflect the transcendent joy, faith and reverence of an author who knows Jesus as God Incarnate, and who can write with confidence: If Christmas means what one can do Or is shaped by good health or clime Then the essence of Christmas remains With man and the fortunes of time. These poems also testify to an American poetic tradition, a tradition fading but still alive, which treats poetry not just as the property of literary professionals, but also as an expression of the every day lives, thought and experience of ordinary people. This is the tradition reflected in Best Loved Poems of the American People, and like that anthology, Ralph Brown's poems, often written hastily in the midst of the demands of work and circumstances, encourage us to keep alive the work of the everyday "rhymester."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Scott Hayes certainly appreciates the importance of being a loyal assistant baseball coach, as he has served in that capacity for eleven years for the Stafford Strivers traveling baseball team. During that time, he has understood the goals and values of Tom Michaels, a very successful head coach for over twenty years. Perhaps that is why Coach Michaels, who is stepping down, is recommending Scott to replace him in the position of head baseball coach of the Strivers. Scott has developed a complete knowledge of the game but, more importantly, observed how Coach Michaels did more than teach the elements of the game. Michaels showed love and concern for every player he coached and earned the respect and cooperation that led to the team's successes. Given the opportunity to serve as head coach, Scott aspires to model Michaels's coaching style, but he will soon discover the challenges that a head coach faces, both leading up to the season and battling through an arduous schedule of league games, nonleague games, and tournaments. The question is, using his strong faith, can Scott quickly develop into the kind of coach he desires to be as he leads the Strivers into a new chapter for the assistant coaches, sponsors, and players?
