Away Game: A Christian Parent’s Guide to Navigating Youth Sports | Christian Sports Parenting | Sports Discipleship

Transform the competitive sports field into a discipleship opportunity. Away Game provides youth athlete encouragement and sports ministry opportunities on and off the playing field.

If we don’t own the process of discipling our kids as they play sports, sports culture will do it for us. But as parents, we can get so consumed with our young athletes’ physical development that we miss the opportunities athletics provide to help them grow spiritually. Away Game challenges us to be more than spectators on the sidelines of our kids’ spiritual lives.
