Beyond the Gold is primarily an incentive to consider the area of sport in particular and leisure in general as a contemporary gospel opportunity.
Secondly, it provides help with resources, contacts, organisations and ideas, so that the challenge of the book is matched by the wealth of the resources. Using sporting phrases as chapter headings it sets out the historic and current opportunity for sports outreach, a biblical case for such a ministry in the local church, developing this ministry in its various stages, and finishing by providing helpful resources.
