Live it! Tim Tebow throws deep for his faith

In a first for them, Focus on the Family has shot a 30-second video that will supposedly give a pro-life message. The commercial features Florida Gators superstar quarterback Tim Tebow and his mother, Pam.

Although the exact contents of the commercial aren’t revealed yet, we do know that during her pregnancy with Tim, Pam contracted amoebic dysentery and there were concerns that the strong medications had damaged her child. The medical consensus was to abort the child.
She didn’t. And I suspect the commercial will have her son standing next to her saying “thanks.”

The Tim Tebow testimony is a story all on its own. This guy is one of the most talented quarterbacks ever in collegiate history. He’s won a Heisman Trophy. He’ll win another. He’ll go high in the NFL. He’ll be a superstar.

And he loves Jesus passionately. This guy brings his Lord to work, front and center, every day.

Each game, he chooses a different Bible verse to inscribe in the black grease underneath his eyes, knowing that television cameras focus on his face dozens of time while he barks out calls.

As the team leader, he’s interviewed by every major network and he never fails to give God credit for his daily walk and protection.

And he lives it. He has been on mission trips and used his platform to speak to many groups. He’s homeschooled. He’s smart. He’s unafraid. He’s spoken up for abstinence and stunned a pool of reporters who were hoping to stump him. He’s a Red Letter Christian, bringing his Lord to his workplace, his playground and his life.
