And God Said, "Tee It Up!": Amusing and Thought-Provoking Parallels Between the Bible and Golf

Where do we encounter God? For the Christian
certainly there is the Bible. For the committed
golfer at least when the drives are carrying and the
putts are falling there are the links. Gary Graf has
brought the two together with a scorecard full of amusing and
thought-provoking parallels between the Bible and golf.

And God Said, Tee it up! takes readers on an entertaining
tour of the worlds of golf and Scripture, revealing the many
connections they share. In eighteen Holes you ll walk some of
golf s greatest courses, including Oakmont and Oak Hill, Pebble
Beach and Pinehurst, Saint Andrews and Spyglass Hill, and of
course Augusta National, home of the Masters. You ll meet the
greatest players in history including Hogan and Hagen, Nelson
and Norman, Palmer and Player, Watson and Trevino, Nicklaus
and Woods playing on renowned courses designed by the likes
of architects Robert Trent Jones, Sr., Charles Blair McDonald,
Alister MacKenzie, and A.W. Tillinghast.

In the midst of all this heavenly golf, you will find the Son of
God himself, teaching by word and example that the kingdom
of God has already begun, in chapters such as:

• In the Beginning
  
• Augusta and Apostles
  
• The Ball and the Word
  
• The Amen Corner
  
• Golf and Bethlehem
  
• Clubs and Talents
  
• Learn at the Turn
  
• Sistine Chapel of Golf
