I'm sure that everyone has already heard the 316/3:16 thing, but here a couple of others (from CHFF):
Final score: 29-23
Thomas scored 11 seconds into the 5th quarter.
Here are mine:
"and they spoke false things in My name, which I had not commanded them, and I am He Who knows and a witness, says the Lord." Isaiah 29:23
The goats for the sin offering were brought before the king and the assembly, and they laid their hands on them. - 2 Chronicles 29:23.
Ahh, the Bible, so malleable in its application.
Every week, Tebow picks out someone who is suffering, or who is dying, or who is injured. He flies these people and their families to the Broncos game, rents them a car, puts them up in a nice hotel, buys them dinner (usually at a Dave & Buster's), gets them and their families pregame passes, visits with them just before kickoff (!), gets them 30-yard-line tickets down low, visits with them after the game (sometimes for an hour), has them walk him to his car, and sends them off with a basket of gifts.
Home or road, win or lose, hero or goat.
"It was the best day of my life," she emailed. "It was a bright star among very gloomy and difficult days. Tim Tebow gave me the greatest gift I could ever imagine. He gave me the strength for the future. I know now that I can face any obstacle placed in front of me. Tim taught me to never give up because at the end of the day, today might seem bleak but it can't rain forever and tomorrow is a new day, with new promises."
I read that email to Tebow, and he was honestly floored.
"Why me? Why should I inspire her?" he said. "I just don't feel, I don't know, adequate. Really, hearing her story inspires me."
No one expected him to notice, I don't think.
Nice what he's doing for kids.....he's got a way to go before he catches up with John Cena or Michael Jordan who tend to do quite a bit more - and much more quietly.

Tebow was too busy to notice it.
Believing in Tim Tebow - ESPN
Stuff J Fallon would never understand.
Tebow has been doing this every game even before becoming a pro without anybody noticing. This isn't new just his newfound celebrity brought it to the fore. They interviewed the girl he mentioned last week, she was shocked that someone would mention her publicly like that.
Oh really? Which Patriot player hosts a different individual every single week, home or away?Probably because the girl did not want to be a walking publicity stunt..
You may not be aware of this, but there are Patriots Players who do the same thing.. except they do not do it in public. Does that make them less religious???
Tebow is the driving force behind an entire hospital being built. It seems to me Jordan is the one who has to do the "catching up."No one expected him to notice, I don't think.

In the interview after the game R Lewis spoke in a very moving way about a young man with Leukemia who had passed away before Lewis could get back out to see him, he had been in contact with the young man and his family. He will be attending the boy's funeral.
So Lewis is showing that other player have a heart and reach out because of their ability to matter in the lives of people who are hurting.
Still don't know why Tebow is bashed.
I have a problem with Tim Tebow. He's not your run-of-the-mill Christian--he's an evangelical Christian. He believes that only those share his beliefs will be "saved." In other words, agnostics, atheists, and those of differnt faiths are destined to an eternity in hell. (Probably Catholics too!) Aside from being a notion of questionable logical integrity, it's offensive. Every time Tim Tebow reminds the world that Jesus is his homeboy, he is, in effect, reminding me that he thinks I'm going to hell. It would be extremely offensive if it weren't born of ignorance (my opinion). I can't "fake" sharing his beliefs--I just don't believe it, so I wish he'd shut up about it. I watch football to relax and have fun.
I ask the following question to those who are defending Tebow:
Would you feel the same way if Tebow were muslim and started every press conference with "Allahu Akbar! I first want to thank Allah, my great God"?
what do you mean by defending him?
But I actually like the guy and think he does a lot of good.
(and I'd feel the same were he Muslim, btw, though I agree with you that there would be far less enthusiasm for his faith were it Islam rather than Christianity)
