Even though I am free of the demands and expectations of everyone, I have voluntarily become a servant to any and all in order to reach a wide range of people: religious, nonreligious, meticulous moralists, loose-living immoralists, the defeated, the demoralized—whoever. I didn’t take on their way of life. I kept my bearings in Christ—but I entered their world and tried to experience things from their point of view. I’ve become just about every sort of servant there is in my attempts to lead those I meet into a God-saved life. I did all this because of the Message. I didn’t just want to talk about it; I wanted to be in on it! You’ve all been to the stadium and seen the athletes race. Everyone runs; one wins. Run to win. All good athletes train hard. They do it for a gold medal that tarnishes and fades. You’re after one that’s gold eternally.

3 Days
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.
