Be Inspired By Free Email Devotions for Die-Hard Sports Fans

While the Bible doesn’t go into detail on the topic of sports, a few biblical letters include athletic imagery as a metaphor to describe the Christian faith, such as

• 2 Timothy 2:5
• Philippians 3:14
• 1 Corinthians 9:24 and
• Hebrews 12:1-2.

Physical competition is a great way of thinking about the discipline that should be a part of our faith journey. Modern-day athletes are an extreme example of what can be achieved when discipline and control are combined.
