Is paintball valid for ministry?
Between rounds of play, your guide will lead the group in faith-based debriefs. The nature of the sport makes for lively, provocative discussions. Each round will illustrate a spiritual lesson and encourages decision-making. Players explore such themes as:
- Spiritual warfare
- Building successful life strategies
- Actions and consequences
- Eternal destiny
- Team-work and team-building
We quickly learned that strategy was the key to winning. Then it hit me, "If I’m going to make it for the long haul as a husband and a father, I had better be applying God’s strategy so I can be a real winner in life.
