Axiom Sports began with a dream by a small group of college students who desired to use sports as a platform to change the world. This group had a vision that was accompanied by years of experience in both camp ministry and student ministry. The team spent their entire lives learning lessons from athletics that have shaped them into the people they are today. After having their lives changed from camp ministries, they began to understand value of the camp experience in the lives of kids. This experience with years of sports and leadership training has convinced them that athletics are one of the main avenues to reach this generation for Christ.
Sports are universal. In what other area of life can an American, a German, a Zimbabwean, a Peruvian, and a Korean get together and understand each other completely? Sports unite the world. The Olympics brings cooperation from the entire world in a way that politics never could. Soccer’s World Cup has literally caused wars to cease. The first American contingent allowed into a closed communist China in the ’70’s was a ping pong team.
The gospel of Jesus Christ is also universal. It is for all people for all time. People in China, New Zealand, Nicaragua, and Canada worship the same Lord. At Axiom our mission is to make disciples of all nations - and sports is the language we will use to make it happen.
Axiom will equip students with the tools they need to succeed both on and off the field. “Winning Redefined” is our mantra, which is a paradigm shift from what the world teaches. in implementing our five core values of integrity, unity, discipline, respect, and courage we will disciple these athletes and teach them how to be true champions. Our curriculum will also be used by parents and coaches to reinforce these concepts in the athletes. These values are all based on biblical truths but can be used in a secular setting with teams and athletes as well.
Based in Stuarts Draft, Virginia, our initial ministry focus is to run sports summer camps for local athletes and teams where each day a different core value will be emphasized. Our Axiom team will show campers the love of Christ and teach them to glorify Him with their talents on the field, and with their character off the field. the next phase is to launch Axiom International and continue to expand into other countries. Eventually, we would like to bring international high school student athletes to live residentially at the Axiom Academy. They will be equipped at the highest level in their sport by the Axiom staff, compete against the best athletes around the east coast, be discipled, and be educated through a partnership with a local school - all the while being prepared for a future at the university level and to impact their world for Christ. Ultimately, Axiom’s goal is to multiply ourselves internationally to build complexes which train athletes and make disciples of Jesus Christ.
Jesus told his first followers to make disciples of all nations. Sports unifies the nations.
Axiom uses the language of the world to reach the world for Christ, one athlete at a time.
