One of my most embarrassing moments occurred a few years ago when a fellow worker, of several years, said, “I didn’t know you were a Christian.” Wow. Do the people you work with know you are a Christ Follower?<\/p>\r\n

According to decisionmagazine.com<\/a>, some prominent athletes are not shy about their faith. The Kansas City Chiefs won the Super Bowl Sunday night. But for several Chiefs players, a Super Bowl isn’t as important as their relationship with Jesus Christ.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Chiefs, Dustin Colquitt, believes winning the Super Bowl is about showing the world the love of Jesus.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

\u201cMy faith in Christ is something that\u2019s unwavering. Special teams can come and go, and eventually I\u2019m not going to play in Kansas City or the League, but my faith in Christ is going to take me all the way to the other side\u2014to eternity,\u201d he said during a press conference before the game. \u201cThat\u2019s something I share with coaches, with teammates, with anyone I come in contact with, because that\u2019s the one thing I can count on never changing.\u201d<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Chief’s  CEO Clark Hunt, a Christian since he was 10 years old, says that encouraging team members in their walk with Christ is a top priority.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

\u201cWe want our employees to develop spiritually. In the National Football League, Christ is really glorified. My identity is my faith in Christ.\u201d<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

\u201cThere\u2019s definitely a lot of Christians in the organization, and when it starts at the top, that\u2019s pretty powerful, with the owner, and he kind of sets it from there,\u201d said offensive lineman Stefan Wisniewski.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

\u201cThe best place you can be in life is the center of God\u2019s will. And the center of God\u2019s will for my life was unemployed for five weeks. And it was a challenge and He was with me and I leaned on Him during that time and I trusted Him, praised Him. I knew that if He wanted to, He could exalt me again and it was just my job to humble myself before Him. And here I am\u2014about to start in the Super Bowl. That\u2019s all because of God,\u201d Wisniewski told CBN before the game.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

While accepting the Lombardi Trophy, Hunt once again modeled to his team how to put faith in action. \u201cI want to thank the Lord for blessing our family with all these incredible people to bring this trophy home.\u201d<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

We may not be media sensations, but we are seen. People need to know more than what we do for a living or have a general idea about our family life. They need to know we follow Christ and nothing is more important than that. Don’t be like me and assume that co-workers know where we stand on Jesus. Let’s stand boldly and publicly.<\/p>\r\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
