| Summary, etc. |
The primary purpose of this study was to develop a model for the promotion of evangelism through a Sports and Recreation Ministry, specifically within the South African Dutch Reformed Church. In preparation of the mentioned and also to address the set research objectives, the following was determined and established: The Biblical and theological foundation, as well as the mandate for promoting evangelism through sports and recreation activities; secondly, the origins of play, games, sports and recreation were examined, including the roles these physical activities had within some ancient civilisations in combination with their respective religious activities and rituals; and thirdly, the starting pointof a ministry utilising sports and recreation activities was traced back to the mid-1500s, where a prototype of Muscular Christianity (1857), the Sports and Recreation Ministry of today, was found. This Ministry’s efforts abroad, mainly in the United Kingdom and United States of America, were perused, out of which two approaches, one aimed at the macro and another at the micro level within this Ministry, were identified. Fourthly, an investigation was launched into the arrival of sport and other physicalactivities to the African continent, in which the roles of colonial powers and missionaries in particular were looked at. Finally, the focused shifted to South Africa and the development of this Ministry within the country. Out of the findings of this study, a Sports and Recreation Ministry model was presented for the Christian Church in general, but in particular for the Dutch Reformed Church. Additional proposals in terms of a supporting curriculum and a supporting management structure were also included, ensuring the most efficient and effective promotion of evangelism by a Sports and Recreation Ministry. |
