When the Game is Over, It All Goes Back in the Box

PowerSurge Tune-up Series

Using popular games as a metaphor for our temporal lives, this program, neatly sorts out what's fleeting and what's permanent in God's kingdom. Being Master of the Board is not the point; being rich toward God is. Winning the game of life on Earth is a temporary victory; loving God and other people with all our hearts is an eternal one. Using humor, terrific stories and a focus on 'the right trophies', Pastor Ortberg paints a vivid picture of the priorities that all Christians will want to embrace.


How do you play the game of life?

Do you play for things that really count?

The rewards of "winning" are thrilling but temporary: a new house, a promotion.

And at the end of the game, what happens next? In life as in Monopoly, eventually, everything goes back into the box. What ultimately matters is whether we've played the game according to God's rules.

Now CCN invites you and your community to learn how to arrange your lives around what matters most!

According to Dr. John Ortberg author of the book When the Game is Over, It All Goes Back in the Box, we often make the mistake of focusing our lives on pay-offs that don't satisfy and that won't last:

    "There are always more rungs to climb, more money to be made, more deals to pull off. And the danger is that we forget to ask what really matters," says Ortberg.

Discover the freedom that comes from knowing that more will never be enough; find lasting joy by pursuing God's rewards.

You'll learn how to:

  • Play by God's rules.

  • Collect the right kind of trophies.

  • Fill each square with what matters most.

  • Be the kind of player that people want to sit next to.

Learn how to play for the prize that lasts!
