About Us
Our Ministry
Bill Adams has been taking the Gospel of Jesus Christ to the fans attending major sporting events across the U.S.A. and the world for over 9 years. These events include the Super Bowl, NBA & MLB All-Star games, NCAA Final Four, BCS Championship games, various bowl games, the Kentucky Derby, the Olympics, the World Cup, Euro Cup, the Cricket World Championships, the Rugby World Cup & the Pan AM Games.
What better place to be a light for the Lord than at a gathering of tens of thousands of sports fans?
Seeing a need for more Christians to take their faith to the world, Bill organized Sports Fan Outreach as an effort to encourage our brothers and sisters in Christ to share the Good News at these major sporting events!

Our Beliefs
Sports Fan Outreach is a Kingdom-minded, Christ-centered, Bible-based short-term mission agency that participates in the Great Commission by taking teams to proclaim Christ (Phil. 1:18) at major sporting events in the U.S.A. and around the world.
Our purpose is to inspire the Saints toward a more intimate relationship with God our Father, the Lord Jesus Christ & the Holy Spirit as they are revealed in Holy Scripture (John 17:3, Phil 3:10) and to proclaim the message of salvation to the lost (Luke 19:10) all for the glory of God!
If you want an account of SFOI’s perspective on the relationship between God & man including salvation read the account of creation including man being made on the 6th day, Adam & Eve living in the Garden of Eden & then sinning in the garden & God redeeming them & casting them out of the garden in Genesis 1 – 3. The fundamental relationship hasn’t changed since then.
Doctrinal beliefs:
All men are dead (towards God) in their sins. They have no ability to choose God on their own, they have no life in them to respond to God. But salvation comes to man because He is rich in mercy & through His mercy He quickens man’s dead soul to life through the ministry of Christ: by grace are you saved through faith (Ephesians 2:1-9).
Faith comes by hearing & hearing through the Word (Romans 10:17). By the foolishness of preaching do men get saved (I Cor. 1:21). The preaching of the cross is foolishness to them that are perishing but it is the power of God to us who are being saved (I Cor. 1:18).
All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: That the man of God may be perfect, throughly furnished unto all good works. (II Timothy 3:16 – 17).
Jesus is the way, the truth & the life. No one comes to the Father but through Him (John14:6).
The Trinity – we believe there is one God, eternally existing in three persons: the Father, Son and Holy Spirit (Matthew 28:19, John 10:30).
Jesus is the high priest of God’s people after the order of Melchizedek (meaning He is eternally the high priest) & thus the living tabernacle by which we now come to the Father. (Hebrews 5:1-10).
Jesus is the Lord of God’s Kingdom which He is creating daily. This Kingdom of Christ & of God is on the earth now; it’s the only Holy Nation (I Peter 2:9) on the planet; it’s citizens are from every tribe, tongue & nation from around the globe; all other nations are goat nations meaning none of them including the United States are Holy. Thus the citizens of the “Common Wealth of Israel” exist to proclaim the name of their Lord Jesus Christ & follow His commands.
There are only two kinds of people in this world: Saints who are saved by the blood of Jesus Christ (Romans 3:25) and sinners who will perish when Jesus returns in the clouds with His mighty angels (II Thesslonians 1:7-8).
Our life as Christians is to purposefully fulfill the Great Commission and to be obedient to the commands of our Lord Jesus Christ (Matthew 28:19-20; John 15:1-10).
If you read something that you want to clarify please contact us. Perhaps SFOI’s faith in Christ alone for the salvation of our souls for the glory of God alone hasn’t been adequately expressed in the afore mentioned verses; we’re always eager to discuss our Christian beliefs & welcome your inquiries. Thank you for taking your time to review our God given Statement of Faith whose source is the Holy Scriptures.
