You are an athlete. You are a special kind of person. You are driven, dedicated, and determined-perhaps like no other. As an athlete, you have a platform to praise God, honor God, and obey God. How you live can show others how to grow in their relationship with God, you must commit your whole life to God, including your athletic pursuits.

Come join us on a journey through the Scriptures as you explore these 20 devotions, each focused on transforming your athletic experience into an arena of peace, preparation, and praise. It is our prayer that as you read these devotions, you do more than simply absorb the words - may you allow God to change your mindset and transform you into the athletic Christian God has purposed you to be.

As you read, may God give you the strength to embrace discomfort so that you can perform at your best, even in the most challenging competitions. May God help you see the bigger picture-that He is molding you into what He wants you to be-rather than focusing solely on the competition or opponent. And most importantly, may you come to know that God is so vast that He is present even in your athletics. We all need to draw closer to Jesus, and every opportunity we are given is a chance to glorify God, honor Him, and grow closer to Him.
