Sports Ministries

The church is called to be a dynamic organism that is sent into the world to be a witness for Jesus Christ, and thereby glorify God. In partnership with God, the church carries out her redemptive work by equipping, mobilizing and sending out saints to proclaim the Good News. Because of this critical call on the church, this dynamic body of believers must be strategic . . . must be expedient . . . must be prudent in carrying out that call.

With that in mind, the church would be wise to understand the phenomenon of sports and recreation since it has such a pivotal and pervasive place in our society - and the societies of the world.


Seventy-five percent of Americans watch, read about, or participate in sports once a week, and ninety-eight percent do so once a month. If that is where the people are, if that is what the people are doing, it seems prudent for the church to determine how best to utilize that cultural interest for the sake of declaring Christ.
