Matt and Colleen met at Georgia Southern University. Colleen played soccer (2004-2007) and Matt played football (2004-2007) for the Eagles. They both believe God has called them to serve and minister to the Georgia Southern athletic community after their playing days were over. Matt has been a football Chaplain since 2009 for the Eagles and Colleen has joined Matt on staff in 2014 to help minister to the girl athletes as well as raise their little girls, Hope, Kennedy, & Berkley.
Our vision: To see a day when there are Christ Followers on Every Team, in Every Sport, in Every Nation
Our Mission: Making Disciples Who Make Disciples
• 2 Timothy 2:2
• Matthew 28:18-20
Our Model: To achieve our mission Athletes in Action staff work to build a spiritual movement within the GSU athletic department. A spiritual movement occurs when God works through a team of like-hearted people to:
WIN others to Himself (evangelism)
BUILD them up in their faith (discipleship)
SEND them out to do the same (multiplication)
“An important part of our team’s preparation involves an area that often goes unnoticed…the spiritual development of our young men and our staff. The Athletes in Action ministry is an integral part of our program and the support and encouragement that AIA provides goes beyond what we, as coaches, can offer.” Former GS Coach
Our Request:
We invite others to partner with us to reach people for Christ at Georgia Southern.
Our prayer is to see God raise up athletes and coaches whose life mission is to know and walk with Christ, live in genuine Christian community, and expose the unbelievers they are around every day to Christ.
We believe this is possible when organizations and individuals who want every athlete to know someone who truly follows Jesus, work together toward the common goal of furthering God’s kingdom.
Your vital partnership will make it possible for people to know Christ! Like many other mission organizations, Athletes in Action staff depend on the consistent prayer & financial support of concerned individuals & organizations.
You can make an investment in this outreach to Georgia Southern University athletes by partnering with Athletes in Action staff couple, Colleen and Matt Wise, by committing to a monthly donation of $100 each month or some other amount.
Contributions are made to individual staff members through Campus Crusade for Christ and are tax-deductible.
