WS SECONDARY SPORT AND ACTIVITIES PROGRAM
In 1 Corinthians 6, Paul shows us the importance of keeping our body healthy, pure and holy. There it says, “Or didn’t you realise that the body is a sacred place, the place of the Holy Spirit? Don’t you see that you can’t live however you please, squandering what God paid such a high price for? The physical part of you is not some piece of property belonging to the spiritual part of you. God owns the whole works. So let people see God in and through your body.” (The Message)
God has given us the responsibility to take care of both our physical body and our spiritual part, for this is where the Holy Spirit lives – inside of us. This emphasis, which God places on looking after our physical body, provides the framework around which this course is structured.
