“Forgetting those things which are behind and reaching forward to those things which are ahead, I press toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus.”  Philippians 3:13-14

There is a new look and feel at Cypress Christian and there is an excitement that is contagious.  2009-2010 is going to be a great year for Warrior Athletics.  Our theme for Warrior Athletics this year is “Driven…by Purpose.”  There is more to being driven than winning.  If our only purpose in this athletic program is to win and to be champions, we will find disappointment and frustration.  As Christians in athletics, our focus must be made clear.  We must focus first on the person of Jesus and get in line with His word.  Then, we are driven by a worthy purpose.

                           

“By focusing our attention on the person of Jesus and aligning ourselves with Him and His word, we are driven by a worthy purpose.  There is a renewing of our mind into the image of Christ Jesus.  Our character becomes more and more like His.” ( A Champion’s Heart by Jim Sheard and James E. Gauss)

 

Taking hold of I Corinthians 15:58, we need to learn to be steadfast and immovable in our beliefs.  Athletics is a venue to take that stand and, through Jesus, to be driven, to play for Him.  Through Him we can accomplish so much more than we could ever do alone. 

 

God has brought an incredible coaching staff together for one purpose:  to Serve Him.  We are ready to begin this year’s journey with the student athletes and the parents coming alongside the coaches and the school. We are driven to be the best we can be in order to bring glory to Jesus Christ.  It is our character that is most important in God’s eyes.

                                                                                                

Driven…To Serve,
