A Father’s Example Guides Tebow
posted on May 17, 2012Visiting the orphanage Tim Tebow’s father, Bob Tebow, established, Seth Mydans writes for The New York Times about the impact his father’s missionary work had on the NFL quarterback. Tebow’s father “set a rigorous standard for his son’s evangelical work, ready to go anywhere and meet anyone.” Mydans also notes Tim Tebow’s “difficult birth,” when his family says “his mother rejected a doctor’s suggestion that she terminate the complicated pregnancy.” One of his father’s partners in ministry, remarks, “We never thought Timmy would go that high in sports … God trained him to be a preacher.”
