Chapel - We are a Team

Chapel talk - We are a team.

Introduction: Since we began in preseason training, we have been developing into a team. We are now ready, dominant, relentless, and committed. We are on a mission. We are brothers, road dogs, resilient, determined, strong and loyal. Let's combine all these characteristics into being one, unified team.

Prayer.

This text from the book of James reminds me of this team and many individuals in it. (Read James 1:12 aloud.)

• Blessed is a man when he perseveres while under trial.
• Once approved he receives the crown of life.
• That crown is promised to those who love God; to those who are most highly committed.
• Kings wear crowns. Crowns are emblems of honor and respect.

This team, all season has persevered under trial. 

• We are blessed.
• We have been approved and are wearing a crown.
• We are in position to receive the promised crown,, emblematic of honor and respect.
• You have demonstrated great love and commitment.
• Wear your crown proudly today because, "We are a team."

Prayer.
