The Sports Movement Culture: Serving Together

Within the global church, there's a vibrant sports movement focused on sharing Jesus' love through sports. This session dives into the culture of this movement, helping us serve effectively:

• Culture Matters: Every team has a culture, and the sports movement is no different. This culture shapes how we work together. We want a culture that honors God and reflects our beliefs! Whether we’re on or off the field we want to play and train in a way that in consistent with what we believe.

Five Keys to Serving in Sports

Here are five important things to keep in mind as we serve in the sports movement:

1. Kingdom Focus: We're ultimately serving God's Kingdom, following the teachings of Jesus.
2. Character Counts: Living with virtues that honor God and align with the Bible is essential.
3. Faithful Leadership: Leaders who serve with integrity and humility are crucial.
4. Relationships First: Strong relationships matter more than programs or procedures.
5. Partnering for Impact: Working together might be challenging, but it's vital for achieving God's mission (the Great Commission).
