Cross the Line
SPCK Publishing (Verlag)
978-0-281-07680-2 (ISBN)
Twenty high-profile footballers share their faith and reveal how it influences their lives, both on and off the pitch.
The book offers a range of information and insights into strictly football matters, while also exploring the way these players have 'crossed the line' into a relationship with Jesus, and showing how God is actively at work in professional football today.
Ollie Baines and Liam Flint are co-founders of Cross The Line (http://xtheline.co.uk). Ollie was included in Premier Christian Radio’s recent feature on ‘33 Young Christian Leaders', and both were finalists in the 2015 Football Blog Awards.
