Commitment: The Team Aspect

There are some sporting activities that are totally reliant upon the skill and strength of a single individual.  The wrestler, swimmer and runner function within the boundaries of their own efficiency.  Other sports depend upon the individual’s ability to connect to and function with other team members.   The team’s success in football, basketball and baseball, while related to individual performance, is really applied by the fashion in which each player contributes their ability to the team.

Our spiritual commitment and ability to function within “Team-Christian” is a vital part of our individual spiritual strength and growth.  Private and personal spiritual growth, while necessary, is no substitute for the position each believer fills on team-Christian.

This lesson will look at three principles in the team connection:

• There is POWER in the team concept
• The team functions under some essential PRACTICES
• Every team member must be a team PLAYER
