Lead Like the Captain

Baseball catcher crouched behind the plate, focused and ready to lead the team from behind the scenes.

Lead Like the Captain   Baseball has a way of revealing character. When the game gets tight, when the heat rises, and when the pressure is on, the team looks to its captain. Not just for talent—but for tone. A true captain leads with conviction, courage, and consistency. Biblical leadership works the same way. Scripture […]

Better Together

Baseball players standing in a tight huddle with arms around each other, symbolizing unity, teamwork, and fellowship.

Better Together   If you’ve ever been to a ballgame, you know the power of being with other fans. When your team hits a walk-off home run, the whole place erupts. Strangers high-five. Everyone’s part of something bigger. But when your team loses, those same fans stick around. They sigh, shake their heads, and say, […]

Salt in the Dugout, Light in the Game

Salt in the Dugout, Light in the Game   On the ball field, most players want to stand out—to make the big hit or rob that home run. In a similar way, Jesus calls His followers to stand out. He tells us to be the salt of the earth and the light of the world. […]

Play Your Position – Embracing Your Role in God’s Plan

Baseball team huddling on the field, symbolizing unity, purpose, and embracing the role God has planned for each player.

Play Your Position – Embracing Your Role in God’s Plan   Baseball is a team sport. No matter how talented the shortstop is, he can’t pitch, catch, and cover the outfield all at once. Every player has a position. Each one matters. And when each man owns his role and executes it with discipline and […]

First Step Back

First Step Back   This week’s devotional is a thoughtful contribution from Austin Wilson, a friend of the Bibles & Baseball team. Drawing from his experiences in baseball, Austin encourages us to stretch our faith beyond our own limits and trust in something greater than ourselves. First Step Back Ever since we started playing baseball […]

The Coach’s Voice

Baseball coach talking to his team, symbolizing leadership, listening, and learning to follow God’s voice.

The Coach’s Voice   Every player knows the importance of listening to the coach. The crowd can be loud. Your own thoughts can distract you. But when the game’s on the line, the voice that matters most is your coach’s—because he’s seeing the whole field. He’s got the strategy. He knows the plan. In life, there are a […]

Keep Swinging

Baseball player at the plate watching a pitch approach with the words “Keep Swinging,” symbolizing perseverance, faith, and determination.

Keep Swinging   Baseball is a game of failure. Even the best hitters strike out. But the ones who succeed are the ones who keep stepping into the box, pitch after pitch, game after game. They keep swinging. The Christian life is the same. You won’t always feel like you’re winning. Some days you strike […]

Breaking the Curse

Baseball player standing in a cloud of dust, symbolizing breaking free from past mistakes and finding redemption through faith in Christ.

Breaking the Curse   Baseball players and fans are known for being superstitious. From rally caps to lucky socks, some believe their behavior can influence the outcome of a game. One of the most famous examples is the Curse of the Billy Goat. In 1945, a Chicago Cubs fan was asked to leave Wrigley Field […]

Anywhere with God

Anywhere with God   This week’s devo comes straight from Justin Penland, treasurer of Bibles of Baseball. Justin was saved over 25 years ago and explains that was a turning point in his life that began a journey of transformation that has taught him to rely more on God’s guidance and develop and deeper faith […]

Jesus Saves—and So Do Double Plays

Baseball player sliding safely into home plate as the catcher holds the ball, symbolizing salvation, victory, and God’s saving grace.

Jesus Saves—and So Do Double Plays   We know the power of a double play. One pitch. Two outs. Momentum shifts. The defense locks in. The crowd comes alive. And just like that, what looked like a dangerous inning becomes a clean getaway. Double plays don’t just stop trouble—they change the game. And they happen […]
