GLORY Overview

All of us are chasing something that we believe will ultimately fulfill us and cement our legacy. At some point, we will find that these things still leave us empty and weighed down. In 2025, let's discover a GLORY that never fades, that frees us to go all out on and off the field to reflect love and hope for others!



There’s nothing inherently wrong in desiring good outcomes from your hard work. But if that's your number one goal as a competitor, it will never be as fulfilling as you hope it might be. You’ll always be tempted to chase your own glory if you don’t understand your true identity and purpose.

As you are renewed in Christ, you have a new heart, which creates a new identity in Him. Then, there is a new purpose to your life: To live your life for Jesus. Your new purpose might be to use your sport as a way to reflect how Christ as changed your life or to share the gospel with others within your sphere of influence.

We’ve talked about surrendering our lives to Jesus in exchange for a new life. But true surrender comes from trusting God in all areas of your life—including as a competitor. Thankfully, your relationship with Jesus comes with the Holy Spirit, who guides us through the process of spiritual transformation.

Even after you’ve decided to follow Jesus, the temptation to fall back into the world’s way of competing can be very strong. However, pursuing fake culture creates a lack of authenticity and makes you hide behind your successes and failures. God’s way is real and lasts beyond the temporary highs you can experience in this life.
