About Us
Who are we?
The OKC Ambassadors are a discipleship baseball organization that was originally designed for college level high school Juniors and Seniors. For 17 years we have played all across the U.S. and even internationally during our eight to ten week summer program. Recently, we have expanded our program offerings to include youth teams.
The Ambassadors are so much more than a team that prays together before a game. During the Ambassador season, our players will receive intensive Bible study training to help them learn spiritual disciplines in their lives as they prepare to go face the challenges that life and the world are going to throw at them. As much as we challenge them on the baseball field, we also challenge them spiritually throughout the season. After training, we give our players the opportunity to share the Gospel with other teams. We have seen many individuals come to know Christ on a baseball field that would have never stepped foot into a church.
For our older team we provide our players this opportunity by hosting free baseball clinics for little leagues where our players will teach kids the fundamentals of the game of baseball, while also presenting the Gospel as well as their own personal testimonies.
Our players are also matched up with an accountability partner for the season, so they can develop the discipline of being authentic with their lives with other Christian believers. We all need people in our lives that can pray for us and challenge us to be who God wants us to be. This is especially true for young men who are about to be on their own for the first times in their lives as they go off to college.
Overall, a season of playing for the OKC Ambassadors is a privilege. We have had over 220 Ambassador alumni who have worked to get our organization to the point where we are thriving on and off the baseball field. We are impactful on the baseball field, because of the caliber of baseball that we play. And we are influential in our ministry because of the name of Jesus Christ that we proclaim.
We are truly 100% Baseball and 100% Ministry. A young man can sincerely be a great baseball player and a true follower of Jesus Christ. Our mission is to equip the young men who play in our organization with spiritual tools and leadership skills in order to be prepared to impact the world with the Gospel of Jesus Christ during and after their baseball career.
WE ARE AMBASSADORS FOR CHRIST!
Therefore, we are ambassadors for Christ, God making his appeal through us. We implore you on behalf of Christ, be reconciled to God.
2 Corinthians 5:20
OUR MISSION
To disciple young athletes through athletics who will then use their God-given ability to share the gospel with the world around them.
DISCIPLESHIP
The focus of our ministry is discipleship. You will be challenged to study the Word of God daily with your coaches and teammates, memorize Scripture and devote yourself to learning what it means to be an Ambassador for Christ. The goal of discipleship is to train you into what it means to live for Christ as a man of God.
EVANGELISM
As an overflow of our discipleship focus, you will engage with opportunities to share the Gospel! Through hosting baseball camps, speaking at church events or talking with opponents after games, you will have an opportunity to herald the Truth of the Word of God.
BASEBALL
We play high-level baseball and dedicate ourselves to helping all of our Ambassadors find a place to use their talents to the best of their ability to glorify God. We believe that part of stewarding the gifts that God has given to us is striving for excellence in every way -- even on the baseball field.
