Lynden, WA, October 11, 2023 --(PR.com)-- Jim Carberry, a pastor, award-winning writer, longtime sports editor, and part of the team that started USA Today sports, has completed his new novel, “Champions In God’s Eyes: The Ironmen of Eagle River”—a captivating story that follows one man’s reunion with his old friend and teammate as they reminisce about their high school basketball season and the struggles and triumphs that changed their relationship with each other, their families, and God.

Having covered hundreds of state tournament games for newspapers and his own prep basketball website, author Jim Carberry combined his love of hoops and God in his debut novel, “Champions in God’s Eyes: The Ironmen of Eagle River.” When not writing and pastoring, he enjoys sharing life in basketball-crazy Whatcom County in the northwest corner of Washington state with his wonderful wife.

Pastor Carberry writes, “Once a year, Cameron Carpenter visits his old friend and teammate Jonah Jackson, and the two read through a journal Cameron wrote in high school to cope with the death of his father. In a series of letters to his dad, young Cameron writes about moving with his mother back to her hometown of Eagle River, Washington, and his tumultuous freshman basketball season. In addition to struggling with fitting in, he and Jonah experience racial bigotry that splits the town and reveals Jonah's mysterious past. Cameron also meets Mandy, the love of his life, only to see her go through a traumatic experience that threatens to separate them forever.

“Will God's grace heal Cameron's pain? Will the team's exciting run through the state tournament bring the town together? Will Cameron learn what it means to have faith in Jesus Christ and be a champion in God's eyes? And in the end, will Cameron and Jonah's lifelong friendship see them through one final challenge?”
