Basketball, Tamales, and God

By David Schingle

Someone you care about is drifting away from you. Maybe from God. How do you tell them? Jimmy Manara believed the answer could be expressed in a letter. But when he began to write, he felt that conveying his concern wasn't enough. He soon found himself relating the story of his personal struggle, revealing how he questioned his own faith, even God's existence. In Basketball, Tamales, and God, humor and everyday life are used to communicate his journey and struggle between worldly philosophies and a God he had once taken for granted. He wanted to show someone how easily one can lose sight of what's real, of what's true. What brought him back to God? What brings anyone back? It's different for everyone, and for Jimmy, the answer included basketball and tamales.
