Compete4Christ

This first chapter is about recognizing how often we focus on behavior modification (like the Pharisees did) instead of changing the heart (like Jesus does). I'd love to hear your feedback. Is this the sort of things you guys would like to see more of?

Chapter 1 is titled "Are You a Christian Coach or a Competition Pharisee?" docs.google.com/document/d/1BP…

It's been a long time since I have tweeted anything or done anything with the Compete4Christ website. I (@KurtEarl14) have been really focused on being a husband, elder, teacher, and coach in Lincoln, NE.

I am so honored and proud to be a part of this great school! #LCS2018 twitter.com/linc_christian…

When it's really all about God's glory and not about your own glory, there is just as much joy in being the MVP as there is in being the backup that no one has ever heard of.

Are you willing to serve Jesus in a role on your team that means no one would ever know your name? ow.ly/9WgO30hGMFC

If you were @JalenHurts and you got benched at halftime of the National Championship game would be able to celebrate the success of your teammates and your team or would you really want all the glory for yourself? ow.ly/tLLM30hGLVc

"Useful servants are satisfied when no one applauds them, as long as everyone applauds Jesus." @pastorjgkell If Jesus really got ALL the glory would you be ok with that? ow.ly/ubx030hGLFa

Do you seek the approval and affirmation of men when you compete? Is it more about pleasing coach, or teammates, or fans, or donors than it is about pleasing the Lord? ow.ly/xyPu30hGLNz

"There is a fine line between wanting God to use you for his glory and wanting everyone to know it." @pastorjgkell Are you photobombing Jesus? ow.ly/PXkc30hGLxZ

Six times in the New Testament we are called to conduct ourselves in a manner worthy of the Gospel and worthy of God. But what does it look like to compete in a manner worthy of God? ow.ly/3pP730hopsB
