\n1. You’ll need a flag sized piece of cloth.
\n2. Mark starting and finish lines in your room using the masking tape. You can also mark out an entire race course if you have the space. For an outdoor use cones or stake some brightly colored string or yarn to the ground to define the track. Ensure there is enough room for cars to pass each other on the track!
\n3. You’ll also need Bibles.<\/p>\n

Activity<\/strong>
\n1. Form “race-car teams” of five students
\n2. Each of teams is to be an Indy-style race car. One person will be chassis, and the other four will be the wheels. The wheels must carry the chassis.
\n3. When I shout, “Racers, start your engines!” all race cars should line up, side by side. Let me hear the roar of your engines!
\n4. When I drop my flag, your race car should race along the outside edge of our meeting room. The first race car to make five laps around the track wins. Ready? Racers, start your engines! Pause, then quickly lower the flag.<\/p>\n

Application<\/strong>
\nWhen the race is finished, have youth \/ children sit together with their teams. Give each team a Bible. Ask a volunteer from each team to read aloud 1 Corinthians 9:24-27, then have teams each discuss the following questions to debrief their experience:<\/p>\n

What does it mean to “run to win”?
\nDid your team run to win? Why or why not?
\nWhat does it mean to run to win in life?
\nWhat’s one thing you can do that will help you run to win in your life?<\/p>\n

Additional Scriptures: Hebrews 12:1-2; I Cor 9:24-27<\/em><\/p>\n
