Ambassadors for Christ

January 16, 2023
By Dr. Susan DeMoss

CHA has a distinct philosophy of athletics. It reads—

“Since we are ambassadors for Jesus Christ, let us conduct ourselves in word and action just as Christ would conduct Himself. Therefore, all that we do, we will do with a total release of our mental and physical abilities and our emotional energies towards our performance, having in mind that Christ is our only audience. Concerning our attitude towards players and fans of the opposing team, we will strive "to love our neighbor as ourselves" and "do unto them as we would have them do unto us."

Athletics is our most prominent public platform for the gospel. From tracts in our athletic program to prayers before the games, athletics provides an avenue for guests to see the difference Christ makes. Character development, response to adversity, and game focus are goals modeled and taught by our coaches. We are grateful for our coaches, athletes, and families who sacrificially give their abilities, time, and other resources for the opportunity not just to play a sport but for the propagation of the gospel.

We invite you to join us at an upcoming game and testify to the difference Christ makes in a believer.
