| en·er·gy [en-er-jee] n. “a vigorous exertion of power” THE CHALLENGE — To form relationships and growth opportunities through sports and wellness activities that connect people to connect with God. THE FIELD — Recognizing that sporting events and health concerns are constantly on the forefront of most Americans’ minds, we will meet the challenge in multiple venues. We will utilize the buildings and grounds of First Christian Church, neighborhood sporting fields, parks, and private homes to bring victory to Christ’s team. THE GAME — We will utilize the gifts and talents of the members of First Christian Church to guide us in selecting the activities we choose to engage the challenge in. These will include activities such as aerobics, kickboxing, basketball, volleyball, golf, softball, healthy dieting, etc… as well as any other opportunities for outreach that present themselves. THE PLAYERS — The events themselves will be open to both church members and non-members alike. Great emphasis will be placed on the priority of reaching out to individuals who at present are not connected with God. THE WIN — We will consider our effort a victorious one when we can say as the Apostle Paul did in Colossians 1:28,29:
“We proclaim Him, admonishing and teaching everyone with all wisdom,
so that we may present everyone mature in Christ.
To this end we labor, struggling with all his ENERGY,
which so powerfully works in us.” |
