Good day – good friends.
Remember last week – We’re looking at the book of Colossians. Paul
writes to a group of Christians who are being tempted to follow new
and exciting things and not make Jesus number one. We looked at how
Paul told them that Jesus was absolutely everything – all they need.
That is still the message today – Jesus is life!! He is the only
thing we need.
Now in light of this let's turn our attention to chapter 4.
Have a read of Colossians ch 4 v2-6.
This is the passage of the bible that Christians in Sport base all
their work upon.
You will have probably heard or seen the strap-line of Christians in
Sport at some time and place PRAY - PLAY – SAY
PRAY – For Lost Sporting friends
PLAY – In a way that honours God
SAY – Something of the good news of Jesus
You’ve got some homework this week!
Get Colossians ch 4 open and work out which verses support each
stage of the Pray, Play, Say model.
That is exactly what Christians in Sport want to support you doing
in your sports clubs, teams and groups!!
Did you play sport at the weekend??
I wonder if you can say that you really tried to Pray, Play, Say!!!
I received an amazing email this week off Phil Roberts who came to
Repton Sports Plus Camp. He send me a photograph of his wrist that
still has the green security wristband that everyone had to wear at
Sports Plus - fair play!! Is there anyone out there who can
challenge him??? email

Next week we’ll pick up with this again.
Until then – Get amongst with your pals in the world of Sport.
