Playing on God's Team: 21-Week Devotional for Building True Christian Athletes
by T.C. Stallings
In Jesus' name we pray; on His team we play!Maybe you've heard your coach say that you're one of the most dedicated players on the team. Or maybe that's what you want to be. But when it comes to your dedication to God's team-the one that matters most-what kind of player would Jesus say you are?We all know the standards that make a good athlete-strength, confidence, hard work. But what about those standards God calls us to as Christians? We are all players in this spiritual game called life and we can use God's standard to evaluate the way we, His players, play it. Just as an athlete is recruited to play a sport, we each have been recruited by Christ.Every effective team must work together toward a common goal. The purpose of this Bible study and devotional is to help build, encourage, inspire, and produce committed Christian athletes-men, women, boys, and girls who desire to consistently follow the game plan of Christ, not those that have become wishy-washy with Jesus and would like to stay that way.No more "game-day-only" Christians athletes. Playing on God's Team is about being an everyday follower of Christ, on and off the field, in and out of season!

Review
In this 21-week Bible study, T. C. Stallings challenges us to take a hard look in the mirror and decide if we are a "participant" or "true team player" for Christ. What an awesome study to bring us closer to our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
" Ryan Russell, Director of Athletic Performance for Auburn University Football It's refreshing to see T. C. Stallings boldly living for Christ. His experiences as a former college and professional athlete give him the much-needed credibility within the world of athletics, which, in essence, allows him to be his brothers' keeper. As iron sharpens iron, one person sharpens another (Proverbs 27:17). My prayer is that you will use this devotional to sharpen your spiritual skills, get you off the sideline, and fearlessly play on God's team!
