Let’s Take Aim!
Introducing a revolutionary outreach tool—a shooting competition with eternal impact! The MARKSMAN program provides your church with a proven framework where members invite their unchurched friends to enjoy an exciting airsoft shooting competition. During the event, a compelling speaker shares their testimony and presents the Gospel in a natural, non-threatening environment. The MARKSMAN is designed to create meaningful connections that lead to life-changing conversations about faith. This isn’t just a shooting competition; it’s an innovative ministry model with demonstrated success in reaching people who might never enter your church doors.
A Target-Focused Approach to Outreach
In this event, participants engage in an airsoft gun competition, have their photo taken with a custom background, and receive a personalized target that becomes part of an evangelistic tract.
How the Competition Works
Kingdom Impact is Just a Shot AwayThe MARKSMAN combines the excitement of shooting sports with intentional evangelism through a simple but effective process that creates natural opportunities to share Christ's message.
Invite & Connect
Church members invite their unchurched friends to participate in an airsoft shooting competition. Participants form connections with church members in a relaxed, fun environment that appeals to those interested in shooting sports and outdoor activities.
Compete & Fellowship
Participants enjoy the airsoft shooting competition where everyone gets six shots at a target. Each participant’s target is saved and later attached to a personalized evangelistic tract, creating a meaningful keepsake that shares the Gospel message in a unique and powerful way.
Share & Follow Up
After the competition, a guest speaker shares their testimony and presents the Gospel in a non-threatening environment. Follow-up activities—including paintball the next day and a 4-week small group study on faith and shooting sports—help continue the relationships formed during the event.
