Faith on the Field: Competing with Purpose

“Whatever you do, work heartily, as for the Lord and not for men.” — Colossians 3:23

Play Aloud

From locker rooms to stadium lights, from the quiet discipline of training to the intensity of game day—faith finds its place on the field.

Faith on the Field is a space where we highlight stories of athletes, coaches, and teams who live for something greater than the scoreboard. In a culture often defined by performance and pressure, these stories shine a light on what it means to compete with character, humility, and purpose—because they know their true victory is in Christ.

In this section, you’ll read about:

• Athletes who boldly share their faith in victory and defeat

• Coaches who lead with integrity and Christ-centered leadership

• Teams who pray together, serve together, and play for more than trophies

• Stories of perseverance, teamwork, and growth fueled by trust in God

Whether it's a high school team kneeling in prayer before a game, a college athlete giving God glory in an interview, or a pro sharing the Gospel with their platform—Faith on the Field reminds us that Jesus is present in every arena of life, including sports.

This section isn’t about fame or stats. It’s about what happens when faith shapes the way we train, lead, and play. It’s about using the gifts we’ve been given for the One who gave them.

If you know an athlete or coach who is putting Christ first in their game, we invite you to share their story. Let’s celebrate the impact of faith in action—on the court, on the field, and beyond.

Amen. Play for His glory.

In Christ,

The Amen Today Team
