Fellowship Using sports, entertainment and other things of this world to reach the lost with the Gospel

[hislegacy]

Football, baseball and most sports have ministries that take advantage of their popularity as an opportunity to minister the Gospel of Jesus Christ in word and Action.

The Fellowship of Christian Atheletes is on high school and college campuses throughout the United States. Their vision is:

Unite your two passions, faith and athletics, to impact the world for Jesus Christ.

We've been on one mission for over 60 years.​

Just this summer, they had 106,000 in attendance - 8,788 first time decisions for Jesus Christ - 11,256 re-commitments in 40 states and 45 nations.​

Sports are not scriptural, never mentioned - and to many they can become and idol. But these folks have taken the popularity of sports and made it into an outreach.

Even some of the non conventional sports are used as an outreach. Like these Brothers and Sisters who use paintball as an avenue.

The same goes for a variety of Martial Arts Organizations

So here is a fellowship thread for like minded Brothers and Sisters - Share some ways that you have found effective in reaching the lost.

To answer the thread's title: Sure, as long as doing so does not violate your own relationship with God. (That can be said of any pursuit.)
