NFL Coach Has Heavenly Result

How does the NFL and God get together?

Millions of people were glued to their T.V. sets watching the Super Bowl. What the world didn't see is two coaches who wear their faith in Jesus Christ on their sleeves.  Please refer to the resources below to hear Tony Dungy and Lovie Smith. Their stories are powerful.

 

"I don't tell people, 'Hey, you have to be a Christian to be on our team.' But I try to show them the way I live, and I hope that rubs off on them."
- Tony Dungy

 

 

 

 

Life is a choice. Standing on the fence is not an option! You need to choose to follow the world's values or follow the value's of Jesus Christ, the true life changer. Who will you follow?

After watching Facing the Giants, tears were streaming down our cheeks.  Football wasn't about winning or losing, but praising God. The football game was about doing your best, using your gifts, and giving God the glory. Football and faith walked hand in hand.

We know who we choose!

The NFL and God

    I absolutely love it when a Ball Player or coach shares with the world his belief in God and Jesus Christ, great way to be a roll model.....5*

    Tony Dungy is a man I truly respect. As the coach in Tampa Bay for many years his impact on the community went far beyond the playing field. HIs faith and willingness to share it truly made a difference in our community. The first Promise Keepers event I went to was in the Big Sombrero (Tampa Stadium). When it was announced that Coach Dungy was in attendance I knew that things were going to be different in Tampa Bay.
