To accomplish the mission of Gospel-Centered Sports Ministry, your ministry needs to look like an NFL team. Most sports ministries are overwhelmed with the day-to-day responsibilities of their jobs. They are either operating as both the general manager and the head coach or coaching with little to no assistant coaches, which is not a recipe for success. What would you say to a Sports Minister who is trying the: - Head Coach/GM model? - Head Coach with few or no assistant coaches? You might say: - Recruit qualified help in the off-the-field operations to free you up to coach - Recruit assistant coaches to help you develop your “players” - Give up on really accomplishing your mission - Draft only #1 draft players who need no development Take this diagram and show it to your leaders – both church and ministry – and ask them for their thoughts. For assistance in developing this NFL model at your church, contact CEDE SPORTS. #mission #churches #chaplains #ministry #cedesports
