Spiritual Game Plan

Millions of us love sports–playing, supporting, watching. But have you ever thought about how your love for sports connects with your love for Jesus?

Some of us feel a bit guilty for loving sports so much, especially when there are so many other ways in which we could be using our time to serve God. Others see it simply as a great way to share the gospel (while having fun). And many of us have never really thought about it at all!

This book will show you what the Bible says. You’ll discover a more liberating approach than feeling a bit guilty, a deeper approach than seeing sports as only an evangelistic opportunity, and a better approach than not linking your faith and your love of sports at all.

Starting with asking why God created sports in the first place, Spiritual Game Plan explores how the gospel impacts and transforms the way we think and play. You’ll discover how to enjoy sports even more as you let God shape your perspective, and you’ll see how he can use your sports to grow and shape you as his follower.

Includes lots of stories from elite to everyday athletes, as well as chapters on specific topics such as sports on Sundays. In addition to teaching for athletes, there is advice for parents, coaches, and fans.

A great gift for Christians who love sports as well as a useful resource for sports ministries, including summer camps and Christian teams.
