And I do all this for the sake of the gospel, so that I may share in its blessings along with you. Do you not know that in a race all the runners run [their very best to win], but only one receives the prize? Run [your race] in such a way that you may seize the prize and make it yours! Now every athlete who [goes into training and] competes in the games is disciplined and exercises self-control in all things. They do it to win a crown that withers, but we [do it to receive] an imperishable [crown that cannot wither]. Therefore I do not run without a definite goal; I do not flail around like one beating the air [just shadow boxing].

Infinitum is a way of life centered on following Jesus by loving God and loving others through an emphasis on the habits and disciplines of surrender, generosity, and mission). We aim to see the Bible and also the world through these Jesus-colored lenses. In this short series we focus on Missional Evangelism.
When Jesus died on the cross, His blood ran from the pillars of wood to the very depths of our spirits. We were finally reunified with God, who speaks to us through a universal language that directly translates to our situation — no matter who we are, no matter where we came from, and no matter what walls divide us. He bled out so all could come in!
Why are we alive? What is our God-given purpose, calling, and assignment? Throughout this study, we will dive deeper into: our Purpose (the WHY behind our new life), our Calling (the HOW we do it as we live out our new lives), and our Assignment (the WHAT we do as we surrender our lives to the leading of the Holy Spirit).
Through a lens of sports and Biblical truth, this 3-day reading plan unpacks the ways to faithfully share the Gospel with those who need the saving knowledge of Jesus.
