AIA has a desire to serve the athletic community, providing a support network for students to find help and encouragement. AIA exists to help transform student-athletes into people who will become Total Athletes, people who maximize the unique potential for which God has made them, and people who pursue to honor God in and through sport, academics, service, leadership and their future careers.
One of our goals is to help student athletes use the platform of athletics to promote positive change in their personal lives and in society through a relationship with God. We offer specific opportunities for student athletes to learn how faith in Jesus Christ can impact their lives in the midst of the unique challenges and demands of sports and college life.
We do this through our three-fold purpose:
|
Impact |
Provide |
Equip |
|
student athletes and the university community with the good news of Jesus Christ. |
a community that encourages student athletes to grow in love for God and love for others. |
student athletes to be godly leaders in their future family, church, communities and careers. |
Athletes in Action is committed to helping student-athletes reach their potential as "Total Athletes." Such an athlete is one who is committed to success physically, mentally and spiritually in the context of a personal relationship with Jesus Christ.
Members of AIA at Brown range anywhere from the serious varsity athlete to the casual or club athlete. Anyone interested in learning more about God, how it is possible to have a personal relationship with him or how to become a "Total Athlete" is welcomed to join us.
AIA also organizes numerous activities, including Bible studies, social events and a variety of community service opportunities.
