Recreational Sports Coach

Course Textbook
As a Seventh-day Adventist who is interested in health and recreation, and possibly in a health or medical career, you need to be aware of the special calling for Christ's disciples to use His method for reaching a lost and dying world in these last days. EG White describes it in "The Ministry of Healing" on page 143:
  • “Christ's method alone will give true success in reaching the people. The Savior mingled with men as one who desired their good. He showed His sympathy for them, ministered to their needs, and won their confidence. Then He bade them, follow me.”
So as part of your course requirement, you will study "Messages to Young People," which is a compilation of E.G. White quotes in regard to personal evangelism and winning friends by serving their needs.​
Instructions: Schedule 30 minutes per day for devotional reading, preferably in the early morning. Read 1 Chapter per day and use the Chapter Quiz to test your understanding. Be sure to pray before each study and reflect on the message afterwards. Try to keep your thoughts on the message throughout the day and watch for opportunities to apply the lessons in your daily life.
