Episode Synopsis

I watched a documentary called ‘All or Nothing’ and it chronicles different sports teams and their desire to win a championship. It takes you inside the organisation and gives insight into the players, coaches and their plans to win it all. It is a real behind-the-scenes look at these teams. To be a champion in any respective sport, there are huge sacrifices that need to be made. There is endless training and devout discipline needed to win and succeed. With Wimbledon recently happening, think of a professional tennis player. How many serves do you think they practised as children or teenagers before they were acing other ranked players? Think of a professional golfer. How many putts do you think they practised? How many balls did they hit  off the tee before they could hit them to compete with the best in the world? There are countless hours, most unseen by everyone, spent late into the nights. They would envision the moments that they would hold up the trophy, champion of the world. This documentary showed behind the veil to see what goes on in the lives of these elite players and coaches. 
This made me think about us, as followers of Christ, are we giving all or nothing? Are we sacrificing and endeavouring toward God and His Kingdom? Can we envision the end, where instead of a trophy or prize, we receive the crown of life and hear well done My good and faithful servant?
