Week 6 Breakout (Faith & Fantasy): Fantasy Trades and the Power of Surrender!

THE BREAKOUT: Fantasy Trades and the Power of Surrender (Not Really Willing to Trade) We’ve all been there: another manager sends a trade offer that genuinely improves our roster, but we refuse to accept it because we’re clinging to one specific player - a sleeper we drafted, a big-name starter, or a favorite pick. Why are we so stubborn when letting go is clearly what’s best for our team? In this week's Breakout segment, Bryce Johnson and Pastor Trip Smith connect this fantasy trade dilemma to our spiritual lives. The Ultimate Trade Offer: How Jesus offers us a completely lopsided exchange - taking on our sin and brokenness in exchange for His grace, mercy, and righteousness. Clinging to Control: Identifying the sins, attitudes, and habits we refuse to part with, even when holding onto them harms our walk with God. Daily Sacrifice: Examining Luke 9:23, Romans 12:1, and Matthew 16:25–26 to understand what it means to deny ourselves, take up our cross daily, and lay down our lives for Christ. Discussion Questions for Your League Meeting: Who is that one player on your fantasy roster you refuse to trade, no matter how good the offer is? What is an area of your life (control, time, wealth, a specific habit) that God is calling you to surrender or lay down right now?
