The Pursuit of Athletic Greatness – Final Outline

By

Because this series has comprised 13 posts, I was wisely advised to link to them all in one. So here we go.

Just as a reminder our questions were: Why and how should a Christian pursue athletic greatness? Or, as a Christian, how can I justify my drive to become the best athlete I can be?

  1. Introductory post.
  2. Outline
  3. The Very Good of God’s Design
  4. Honoring God in the Pursuit of Athletic Greatness
  5. Serving Others Part 1
  6. Serving Others Part 2
  7. Imperfect Previews Part 1
  8. Imperfect Previews Part 2
  9. In Light of the Gospel Part 1
  10. In Light of the Gospel Part 2
  11. Utmost Diligence
  12. Utmost Humility Part 1
  13. Utmost Humility Part 2

I have enjoyed writing on the topic and know there is more to come at some point down the road. But I hope and pray that this series serves you well.

Update: Final link for post 13 now works.

Joe,
Just have to say this outline is so very helpful. I am not an athlete but a mom of two young basketball players. I need all the help and insight I can get. Your website and this outline is doing just that! Thank you for taking “do all for the glory of God” and pursuing athletic greatness and marrying them. I knew it was possible but just didn’t have the “athletic” eyes to see. You’ve helped me to see that. I now feel even better armed to encourage my guys to go, GO HARD, for His Glory!! So exciting.

Thank you!

Rebecca,
So glad to hear you are encouraged. That is an encouragement to me. Let me know of any questions you have or anything you would like for me to clarify further. I would be happy to do so. Thanks again.
Joe

Thank You

I appreciate you taking the time to check in with me and to even scroll down to this, the end of the page. Considering you made it all the way to the bottom of the page, I am thinking you either found the material so compelling that you wanted to read more or found it so weak that you kept looking for something worth your time! I hope it was the former. Thanks again.
