Pursue Daily Meetings

DAY 5 OF 8

PURSUE TEAM

“Let us think of ways to motivate one another to acts of love and good works. And let us not neglect our meeting together, as some people do, but encourage one another, especially now that the day of his return is drawing near.” -- Hebrews 10:24-25 NLT

WARM-UP

No matter the sport, athletes can’t achieve their pursuits alone. In team sports, there must be a group of people working together towards a common goal. In individual sports, athletes need coaches, trainers, family support, and fans to spur them on. But more importantly, athletes need teammates who are reliable, trustworthy, and skilled in their particular roles.

WORKOUT

Greatest Team Ever

The concept of team transcends sports and is highlighted in many ways throughout the Bible. Perhaps one of the greatest teams ever assembled can be found in the New Testament, specifically in the Book of Acts. The original group was 12 men (or disciples) who chose to follow Jesus and learn the Truth from Him. 

Even though they were ordinary people, they spent three years learning from the Son of God. You might say this was the greatest team ever because their leader was and still is the Greatest Coach ever.

And even though the disciples didn’t truly begin to shine until Jesus left Earth, there was a reason why they were chosen to walk alongside Him throughout His ministry. Jesus had a plan for them but needed to train and disciple them before they could begin their greater mission.

WRAP-UP

Q: What’s more important to you, having a great coach or having great teammates?
