247 Overview

As a coach or athlete, it can feel as if the demands never stop. The training, practicing, planning and strategizing keep you hustling and operating at a pace that is difficult to thrive in. Although these things, in the right measure, are necessary to compete at a high level, the pace is not always sustainable. How do you handle the overwhelming demands of a "24/7" sports culture? There's no time to waste, right? Someone is always working harder, training longer, spending more hours watching game film, and prepping for the next game, race, meet or competition.

The reality is that your life doesn't have to be overrun by the pressures to keep up and prove your worth. The pressures and stakes may always be high, but how you respond doesn't have to remain unchanged. The 24/7 "with God" life is available — you just have to slow down long enough to receive what He's ready to give you. You are enough in Christ. Your life is far less about what you do or accomplish and more about who you are becoming in Him. When you make time to be filled up by Him, you can start pouring into others again.

“Now may the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you believe so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.”

Romans 15:13

When Christ resets my perspective, I'm free in Him.

Psalm 46:10

Through Christ, I have a new identity and purpose in Him.

Ephesians 4:22-24

God refuels me with a joy and hope that overflow into every aspect of my life.

Ephesians 3:19

I am ready to go and make disciples out of the overflow of Christ in me.

1 Thessalonians 3:12
