Today we are talking about sports, something that we love to watch and play. We enjoy a good football game, but sometimes the love of athletic competition crosses the line into sports idolatry. Anything we are willing to sin to get or sin to keep becomes an idol, something we treasure more than the Lord. Let's examine our mindset toward sports to make sure our priorities are in the correct order. How much do sports affect your relationships with other people, your mood, and your responsibilities in other areas of your life? What does your relationship with sports communicate to your children about what you value? We need to make sure that our children see us treasuring the Lord above sports.
