Sermon Illustrations from The Perfect Game (2010)

In 1957, a ragtag Little League baseball team from Monterrey, Mexico attempts to do the impossible: to win the Little League World Series. The kids and the town are looking for something to bring them together, and Cesar, the team's coach is looking for redemption. Great sermon illustrations about persistence, prayer, and the need for support in the Body of Christ.

The Perfect Game contains some thematic elements concerning racism and alcohol use.
