The world\u2019s largest sporting event, the FIFA World Cup, begins today. For the next three weeks, football (soccer in the US) fans will cheer on their favorites from among the 32 qualifying countries. As families, we can leverage this global event to learn about and pray for the world. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This year\u2019s World Cup claims some firsts:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>first hosted by a middle eastern country<\/li><li>first held in the winter season<\/li><li>first hosted by a predominantly Muslim country<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Qatar (KUH-ter or kuh-TAR), a small country on a peninsula between Saudi Arabia and the Persian Gulf, has been preparing to host the World Cup for several years. They\u2019ve improved their existing stadium and built seven brand new ones, all equipped with air conditioning. Qatar anticipates 5 million visitors for this international sporting event.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>How does a team get to the World Cup, or any championship tournament? They need three things: a great coach, great players, and a great game plan. Even with these, World Cup coaches and players won\u2019t know who wins until the last minutes of the final game on December 18.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s not only World Cup athletes who are moving towards a goal. In these final days, our world is moving towards a goal, an end that God has planned. God is working out his mission to draw the nations to himself in worship. Satan leads the opposition, fighting against everything that God is doing to redeem sinful people and bring them into his family. Unlike human coaches, God knows exactly how his story will end. God wins!!&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>God shares this ending with us in his playbook, the Bible. He gives us a preview of heaven and who will be there. This week, read and discuss Revelation 5:9 with your family. Revelation 5:9 tells us that through his death on the cross, Jesus purchased for God those from every tribe, language, people, and nation. God desires worship from all peoples and he will accomplish his mission.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If God is like a coach, and the Bible reveals his global game plan, then who are the players on God\u2019s team? God invites anyone who is a follower of Jesus to get in the game. We don\u2019t have to be cross-cultural workers or church leaders to play on God\u2019s team. Everyday families just like ours have a place on God\u2019s team roster. God\u2019s mission is huge and he doesn\u2019t want anyone sitting on the sidelines. Let\u2019s get in the game.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Family Activities<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>We can participate in God\u2019s mission by praying for people groups who cannot yet respond to God in worship because they don\u2019t have any way of learning about him. Here are two ways to pray during the World Cup.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Watch part of the opening ceremony with your family, either live or taped. Afterwards, find the host country of Qatar on a map or globe. Almost 90% of the population there are Muslims. Pray that Qatari families would have access to the Bible, Christian resources, and Christian media through the internet and satellite TV. Ask God to soften their hearts to receive the gospel message.\u00a0<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Unreached people groups live in some of the countries competing in the World Cup.
