{"product_id":"bjj-and-jesus-wilson-pruitt-9798180904447","title":"BJJ and Jesus: Sixty Days on the Mat","description":"Jesus was not a fighter. So what could Brazilian jiu-jitsu - a grappling art built to control and submit an opponent - have to do with the life of Christ? \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eMore than you'd think, once you stop looking for a fight. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIn \u003ci\u003eBJJ and Jesus\u003c\/i\u003e, pastor and jiu-jitsu practitioner Wilson Pruitt takes thirty paired techniques - the guard and the pass, the mount and the escape, the sweep and the tap - and turns each one toward the gospel across sixty short daily readings. This is not a \"fight the good fight\" book. It's about what the mat teaches the body before the mind can argue: that the way down is the way up, that control is something to relinquish, and that the tap is not defeat but deliverance. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eEach day pairs a practitioner's-eye look at one position with one scripture and one concrete thing to do - on the mat, and off it. Together the sixty days descend, movement by movement, from the scramble for control into the one posture the soul most needs: surrender. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eFor the Christian who trains, the trainee who's curious about faith, and anyone who has learned more about themselves from being swept and submitted than from any victory - here is a devotional that meets you where you actually are: tired, honest, and on the bottom, where the real lessons live. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eScripture quotations are from the World English Bible (public domain). \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the author\u003c\/b\u003e: Wilson Pruitt is a United Methodist pastor in Austin, Texas, who trains Brazilian jiu-jitsu in nearby Lakeway.
