The 9 Core Qualities for Developing Healthy Relationships

In the baseball world, we don’t get to choose the friends we spend time with during the season; they come with the team. Still, community must be built, and relationships must be fostered. Navigating the different connections is challenging.

Testimonials

“This book is bible saturated, hope-driven, heartfelt, and emotionally challenging. Billie is masterfully using her experience in baseball to guide us through the depths of what God means by loving our neighbor but taking us first through the valley of her sorrows and failures. Baseball Family celebrates God’s redemptive work amid diverse cultures, realities, backgrounds, and Billie’s own failures. I believe this is a masterpiece of bible detailed applications with the uniqueness of baseball through the lens of a champion for people like Billie.”
