Please read the following scriptures.

Ephesians 5:18; Matthew 5:16

The issue of drugs, which often produces violence in sports, raises questions about our pursuit of pleasure and the consequences of harmful behaviors. Ephesians 5:18 reminds us to seek spiritual fulfillment over worldly indulgence. This involves emphasizing the importance of a healthy, respectful, and drug-free environment.

Inspire athletes to be a positive influence in the sports world by rejecting drugs and violence. Encourage them to shine a light on the values of integrity, respect, and peace. Athletes can resist the temptation of drugs and violence with the help of God. We should encourage them to seek support and choose the path of righteousness in challenging moments. Athletes need to persevere in their commitment to a drug-free and non-violent lifestyle. Remind them that overcoming challenges and temptations is part of the race they are called to run.

In a culture that often glorifies violence and substance abuse, Christians are called to be different. We must resist the temptations of performance-enhancing drugs and aggressive behaviors in sports, and seek a higher purpose. The higher purpose is to be a light in the world to bring glory to God. Athletes should be encouraged to make choices that contribute to a healthy, respectful, and drug-free sports environment, fostering growth and promoting the values of peace and unity.

After careful consideration, please answer these questions.

How can we encourage athletes to make ethical choices regarding drug use and violent behavior in sports?
What does it mean to be "filled with the Spirit" in the context of sports?
How can we support individuals who may be struggling with addiction or aggressive tendencies in the sports world?
