Sports in Focus Lesson One

This week's Sports in Focus study is John 1:1-18. You can download the lesson here and the leader guide here. I also recommend using an ESV Study Bible or MacArthur Study Bible. These are excellent resources that will provide extra insights into the Bible verses. The Apostle John's purpose for writing this gospel was evangelistic. He wrote, "but these are written so that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that by believing you may have life in his name" (John 20:31). John wrote his gospel about 50 years after the death of Christ (80 to 90 AD). His book focused on Jesus being the Son of God. Today's Sports in Focus point is based upon John the Baptist serving as a forerunner for Jesus Christ. John's role was to prepare the way for Christ. Often players and assistant coaches find themselves in a similar support role. They might not be the starter but they need to pursue their role with all the heart (see Colossians 3:23).
