Faith and Work Webinar Series: Sports

March 28, 2023

12:00–1:00 PM CDT

Join us for this Faith, Work, and Sports live webinar as we consider how our faith informs the work we do with sports. Our guest, Dr. John White, is the Harold and Dottie Riley Associate Professor of Practical Theology and is also the Director of the Faith and Sports Institute (FSI) housed in Truett Seminary at Baylor University. 

In this episode, we'll discuss questions such as the following:

• How can we equip people to lead well in sports without sacrificing a Christian commitment, witness, or desire for excellence? 
• What does the Bible say and teach about competition and winning?
• From a biblical perspective, how should we approach complex topics in sports such as race, gender, mental health, and identity? 
• Is there a theological model for engaging sports? How might we participate in sports as a part of God's comprehensive biblical narrative and divine work in the world?
