Sports activities are an integral part of character development at Calvary Murrieta. Christians are commanded to be different from the normal world around them and this includes athletics (John 17:14, 17). The reason is that we have a different perspective from which to work. Jesus Christ is to be the center of all our attention, both on and off the athletic field. We are to have His attitude, actions and mind set (Philippians 2:5, Romans 8:29). We are to do everything as unto the Lord and not as unto men (Colossians 3:23). In other words, we are to perform as if Jesus were the only one watching. Jesus loved us so much that He gave Himself up for us (Philippians 2:8). It is only natural then that we should give all we have to Him in return. In order to be like Christ, we need to study Scripture and rely on the Holy Spirit to guide us. Remember, however, we are developing eternal values!! |
