A two-team showdown. Fast, loud, and fun — but every round asks one thing: does this friendship habit lift you toward God… or drag you down? Friends are a gift — steward your circle. Show me your friends — I'll show you your future.
"Whoever walks with the wise becomes wise, but the companion of fools will suffer harm." — Proverbs 13:20 · "Bad company corrupts good morals." — 1 Corinthians 15:33
Great game — but here's the truth behind it: friends are not the enemy. God designed community. The win is a circle that lifts — not a crew that normalizes lies, disrespect, or sin. Say no with courage. Be the friend who sharpens iron. Choose your future on purpose.
How to Play — "Lift or Drag?"
🎯 The goal: Two teams compete across 4 rounds teaching one truth: friendships carry cause and effect — choose crews that lift toward God, be the right friend, and say no when pressure corrupts. Not anti-friends; pro-wisdom.
