Dad's Lessons from the Sandlot
Dad's Lessons from the Sandlot was written in 2006, two years before Billy Crain passed away suddenly on June 3, 2008. He never got the book published, but our family felt inpired and led by God to find a publisher and get the book in printed from. The book uses the transparency of Billy's baseball stories to expose God's hand in the details of our lives. The ultimate journey leads us to see God is in our stories and to train us to recognize it is really HIS STORY in our humanity. To order your copy today contact jennifercrain@sbcglobal.net.

Yes, He Loves Me
Today I started another group at prison using Billy's book. The class of 10 men were amazing from the start. The questions that they asked about the book were very insiteful. But, a surprize came in the middle of the class when several of the men gave me words that I felt were from Heaven. One man said that he felt that God was so in love with Billy and felt such intimacy with him that He couldn't have the separation anymore. I can't tell you how surprized I was to hear the same thing that I felt about why God took Billy when He did. Another quoted from Enoch and Elijah's stories of going home to God without dying. They expressed the need to have that same intimacy with God that Billy, Elijah and Enoch had. Several said that the desire of their hearts was to walk with God all day, in every situation and relationship. I left there feeling blessed by Daddy in a new way. He showed me how closely He watches me and sent me connections and words that expressed His love for me while I thought I was there to help others. I guess these lessons of love and faithful are always a two way street. Remember, when you give, you receive.

I'm thankful that someone was able to recognize Dad's quality and God intimacy. I'm also glad that God knows what you need to hear and when.
