Object Lesson: Superbowl Christians – Spiritual Lessons for Youth From the Game of Football

While you might not think of your Christian life as a football game, the Bible does use sports to teach about spiritual truths. In Biblical times they might not have had American football games or superbowls but they did have athletic competitions. The sports may be different, but you'll find some things in common with American football if you read the scriptures carefully. You'll find running, a prize, winning and losing, competition, training, goals, fighting or struggle, opposition, spectators, obstacles and hindrances, focus and rules. Even so, there tons of lessons we can learn from football.
