In Training

Series: Olympic Faith

February 08, 2026 | Rev. Brooke Heerwald Steiner

With the Olympics beginning this week—seven of the sixteen sports start even before the Opening Ceremonies—we’ll continue our Olympic-themed, tag-team worship. Last week, we explored teamwork. This week, we turn to Paul’s words to the Philippians, where he encourages faithful training and steady habits. The focus isn’t on the prize itself, but on the ongoing journey of moving toward it. Every Olympian may dream of a medal, yet the heart of competition is about discipline, growth, and perseverance along the way. Join us in worship as we reflect on our faith in the same way—not fixated on a final outcome, but committed to moving toward love, peace, and justice each day.

Series Information

Olympic Faith invites us to see faith as a shared, practiced journey rather than a solo sprint. Drawing on the rhythms of teamwork, training, and the long road to the podium, this series explores how our daily habits, mutual support, and perseverance shape who we become. Along the way, we discover that faith is less about standing on a podium and more about how we run the race with Jesus, day after day.
