Popular culture is saturated with recreation and sports. Each time they
are held, the Olympics, the Super Bowl, the World Series, X-Games, Iron
Man events, the Final Four in college basketball, and the playoff
series in professional basketball capture the imagination of millions
of people in America. The questions are, according to general editor
John Garner, where is the church, and will the church see the
opportunity to use recreation and sports as ministry tools to reach
these people?
The fact is, most churches are not reaching the postmodern culture and
are being ignored by an increasingly non-Christian American culture. To
many people, the church has no relevance to their lives, but
re-creative leisure is relevant. They pursue it at breakneck speed and
often at great costs. Somehow the church must learn to "capture the
imagination" of a world that is passing it by. If the church can
capture the imaginations of people, it can get their attention, gain
access to their minds, and reach their hearts with the message of God's
love.
