Networking and Reflecting on Sport Ministry

Since its beginning in 1996, CEDE SPORTS’ (click here to visit the CEDE SPORTS website) mission has been to impact the people of sport through churches and chaplaincy.  To fulfill this mission, CEDE SPORTS:
  • Coaches Sports Chaplains and Sports, Rec, and Fitness (SRF) leaders in local churches
  • Connects Sports Chaplains and SRF local church leaders to other like-minded leaders
  • Provides key resources to Sports Chaplains and SRF local church leaders
Out of those connecting efforts, CEDE SPORTS offers the following Apps –
  • The SCC (Sports Chaplains Community)
  • The SRF (Sports, Rec, and Fitness Community)
These Apps are FREE, private, secure networks for Sports Chaplains and SRF leaders to easily connect with other like-minded leaders in order to:
  • Ask questions
  • Tell encouraging stories of God’s work in chaplaincy or srf ministry
  • Share prayer needs
  • Provide valuable ministry resources
In other words, the SRF and SCC Apps start conversations that build community!!

In resourcing Sports Chaplains and SRF ministry leaders, we desire to give them a voice to speak into the broken arena of sports, especially for casting a vision of Redeemed Sports. The book Does God Care Who Wins? comes from that desire.
“Does God care who wins?” It seems like a simple question yet it’s an immensely complex subject. If you say yes, does that mean God favors the winners more than the losers?  If you say no, does that mean that there are things in the world that God cares about and others that he doesn’t?
The book, Does God Who Wins?, examines the typical answers to this question and the implications of those answers.  It invites us to journey into a deeper look at sports and the God who created them with the hope of transforming the way we engage them both.
