Audience of One

Audience of One...that was our theme for last weeks women's basketball chapel at UAlbany. We had our first chapel with them last Saturday right before they took on Wagner at their afternoon home game. As we shared earlier, Jen and I are leading chapel times for the UAlbany Women's Basketball Team before every home game. Over the next 5 home games, I will be diving into the first 5 principles of Athletes in Action. Audience of One talked about turning sports from an idol to worshiping God. Keeping in mind that this time is optional for the team, 8 women and 3 coaches decided to show up for the time. I had the opportunity to share a little bit of how I started to live for an Audience of One and then we dove into the Scripture for a while. It was a great time!

We will meet two more times before the women head home for Christmas for their five day break (not much time when you're an NCAA athlete in a winter sport). They have another home game tomorrow afternoon...and on December 23. We meet together a few hours before the start of the game. Please keep these times with them in your prayers.

As for the rest of the ministry, finals are finishing, Christmas parties are done and students are heading home for the break. Please pray for them as they take a much needed rest. Pray that they will keep walking with the Lord and won't let laziness get the best of them.
