WHY - TO BRING TOGETHER THOSE CHRISTIANS INVOLVED IN THE WORLD OF STRENGTH AND FITNESS, TO EQUIP AND STRENGTHEN EACH OTHER FOR SERVICE TO OUR COMMUNITIES
WHO - ANYONE WHO IS INVOLVED IN THE COMMUNITY - FROM GYM OWNERS, COACHES TO ATHLETES AND SUPPORTERS REGARDLESS OF DENOMINATION, TRAINING METHODOLOGY OR ORGANISATION. WE ARE ALL IN THIS TOGETHER AS FAMILY AND ARE BETTER OFF TOGETHER AS CHRIST'S BODY - THE CHURCH.
WHERE - ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD. WHILE THE SITE WAS SET UP TO COVER A CLEAR NEED IN THE MERIDIAN REGION - EUROPE AND AFRICA, IT IS CLEAR THAT THE NEED FOR US TO UNITE IS A GLOBAL ONE.
HOW - WE WILL HAVE A MIXTURE OF CHAT, INFORMATION SHARING, PRAYER REQUESTS (AND ANSWERS!), AND EVENT PUBLICATION.
Methods of Ministry
There are 3 basic ways in which Christians can serve the fitness community. As owners of Gyms; either commercial or church owned. As the organiser of small groups connected to a gym; for example a Faith RXD Chapter or church fitness group, and finally as an individual chaplain; either formally recognised or informally as a Christian who just recognises their mission is to those they see in the gym. There are many similarities in these methods but also enough differences that there is much to learn from all three areas. F.i.T will be a home to share best practice, methods, materials rather than everyone develop their own. We are one community with a common mission field so working together is not only sensible but the way God would have us work.
