Practice is where you build the fundamentals both in sport and faith.

Talking Points:

  • As athletes, practice is where you develop the fundamentals through repetition and putting in the hard work so those things can become second nature.
  • It works the same in faith. Reading God’s word, and putting it in to practice, will help to prepare you for the storms of life. Matthew 7:24-27
