Sharing Faith
Faith as often described as a walk and what finer walk is there than round a golf course? Often when Christians talk about the journey of faith, they focus and identify with other Christians that they share their walk with. The Christian Golf Society believe a golf competition is an excellent setting for people to share their faith with non-Christian friends who have a common passion for golf. Reaching out to friends through sport is probably one of the most straightforward opportunities Christians have. The friendships we form with sporting friends are often far stronger than those we make with other people in our day-to-day lives.
The truth is that as a Christian in an increasingly faithless world you may be the only bible a person reads as they see how you live your life – or in this instance, how you play your golf. The Christian Golf Society encourages people to adopt the Christians in Sport approach of pray, play and say. PRAY for your friends who aren't Christians. PLAY your golf in a way that honours God. Be prepared to SAY something about the promise of Christ.
