Why FCA?

WHY FCA? 

WATCH VIDEO

We believe the uniqueness and challenges within our Sports culture and Communities in Wyoming, spread out and separated often by our wild winters, long distance and big sky spaces. In fact, Wyoming residents deal with some of the highest statistics in suicide and depression.


But we also find hope in that we are also connected to each other with the common ground of enjoying God's great outdoors and playing Sports - from hiking to skiing, hunting to rodeo and our Sport on and off campuses. This is where we see how FCA works to positively impact and influences communities through empowering leader and to and through the Coach.

Our Staff will recruit and train Volunteers who are called to minister to Athletes and Coaches. They will become experts on our FCA Discipleship Process called E3. E3 involves engaging with the heart, equipping Athletes and Coaches to honor God, and empower them to then go out and make disciples by sharing the Gospel and leading in their own FCA environments and their communities. We expect big impact in Wyoming as we see lives transformed!



ENGAGE

We engage relationally by connecting with individuals and through events in many different environments by building genuine trust, sharing our lives, and sharing the gospel. We strive to connect with coaches and athletes where they are on their spiritual journey. 

1 Thes 2:8 – Having so fond an affection for you, we were well-pleased to impart to you not only the gospel of God but also our own lives, because you had become very dear to us.
How WE Engage with the Four

God Loves You

God made you and loves you! His love is boundless and unconditional. God is real, and He wants you to personally experience His love and discover His purpose of your life through a relationship with Him.


Genesis 1:27; John 3:16

Sin Separates You

You cannot experience God’s love when you ignore Him. People search everywhere for meaning and fulfilment—but not with God. They don’t trust God and ignore His ways. The Bible calls this sin. Everyone has sinned.


Sin damages your relationships with other people and with God. It keeps us from experiencing the fulfilling life that God intends for us. The result: you are eternally separated from God and the life He planned for you.


Romans 3:23, Romans 6:23, Isaiah 59:2

Jesus Rescues You

Sin does not stop God from loving you. Because of God’s great love, He became a human being in Jesus Christ and gave His life for you. At the cross, Jesus took your place and paid the penalty of death that you deserve for your sins.


Jesus died, but He rose to life again. Jesus offers you peace with God and a personal relationship with Him. Through faith in Jesus, you can experience God’s love daily, discover your purpose and have eternal life after death.


1 Peter 3:18, 1 Corinthians 15:3-8, Romans 5:8

Will You Trust Jesus?

You can place your trust in Jesus by faith through prayer.


Prayer is talking with God. God knows your heart and is not concerned with your words as much as He is with the attitude of your heart. Here’s a suggested prayer:


Dear God, thank you for loving me and wanting the best for my life. I have lived my life for myself and done things my way, and I am truly sorry.


Jesus, I believe that you are God and have forgiven all my sins by dying and coming back to life again for me. I trust You and ask You to be Lord of my life. I surrender my life to You. You are my God, my Savior and my Lord. Let me experience Your love and Your good plans for my life!. Amen.

EQUIP

After cultivating relationships, and once coaches and athletes come to faith in Christ, we want to equip them with Christ-centered training, events, resources, and ongoing support in what it means to be a follower of Christ, to grow in His Word, and to apply it to their life. 

Eph 4:12 – For the equipping of the saints for the work of service, to the building up of the body of Christ

The CORE

The CORE is an eight-day study that guides you through the essentials to strengthening your spiritual core. When you spend time strengthening your spiritual core, your entire life is transformed by the power of Jesus Christ and His Word. With The CORE, you can grow in your relationship with Jesus Christ as a new believer and disciple.

EMPOWER

Once equipped, we empower faithful leaders who desire to use their time,  talents, and treasures to help other coaches and athletes experience the 
gospel, grow in their faith, and share Him with others. We desire to develop 
disciples who make disciples, assisting them so that they can engage, equip, and empower others to know and grow in Christ. 

2 Tim 2:2 – The things which you have heard from me in the presence of many 
witnesses, entrust these to faithful men who will be able to teach others also.
