Is the God of the Bible really at work in the world today? How can we know? Why does it so often seem like He is not present in the world He created? Why is it so hard for us to experience Him? Could it be that our faith is too small? Two Fish is my story of learning about the presence of the God of the Bible. Scripture promises us that He is the same yesterday, today, and forever (Hebrews 13:8). This book will give you a closer look into my journey of discovering God and His desire to have an intimate relationship with us, to send us on mission with Him, and to move on our behalf. Jesus said, "Apart from Me, you can do nothing" (John 15:5 NIV). This is my personal story of learning the truth of this statement. We serve a God who can do more than we can ask, dream, or imagine. He can do immeasurably more than we can ask, dream, or imagine. This is the story of Him opening my mind to all that He is able to do...which I could have never imagined. It is the God of the Bible who took two fish and fed 20,000. He desires to do this in our lives as well. Perhaps Jesus said it best, "According to your faith, let it be done to you" (Matthew 9:29 NIV).

This book provides an up to date and useful reference tool in respect to the issues that are likely to be faced when mastering sports injury cases.Sport has become increasingly commercialised, which has in turn led to an increase in the financial stakes for participants and clubs in particular and greater financial loss should a participant suffer injury. As a result, there has been a significant increase in recourse to the courts when things go badly. Parties seek new and inventive ways to recover damages from a variety of sources for injuries sustained in the sporting context. The area of negligence in sport has moved a long way since 1985 when it was observed that there was no reported authority as to the applicable standard of care.This guide provides practical and straightforward guidance for all lawyers conducting personal injury cases in a sports law context. It is aimed at solicitors, barristers and those who might have an interest in sports injury law including sporting organisations, professional and amateur clubs, schools and local authorities and insurers. It is intended as a useful reference tool for sports lawyers and personal injury practitioners in respect of the sort of issues that they are likely to meet on a regular basis in the course of their busy practice and it provides an efficient introduction to what points should be considered at the earliest stage.The general principles in respect of liability in negligence, trespass to the person and contract are discussed in the first two chapters when considering the liability of the sporting competitor or participant to other participants and to spectators. Later chapters consider the liability of those responsible for the sporting venue, of the event promoter or organiser, of the sports official, of the sporting governing body or licensing authority and also that of the sports physician, while the available defences and the question of the assessment of damages are dealt with in separate chapters. An exposition of the current state of the law relating vicarious liability is dealt with in a separate chapter, as is the subject of abuse in the sports context.
