Tim Tebow took his skills from the field to the pulpit to preach a sermon of redemption during a livestreamed Easter service by a church in Atlanta, Georgia. The football player preached during Passion City Church’s 10 a.m. and 1 p.m.

“Jesus was forsaken on the cross, so you don’t have to be,” Tebow preached. “Their perfect relationship from eternity past. That bond was broken; So Jesus’ bond with you never has to be broken.”

“That’s why God turned his back. That’s why we need to understand what happened at the cross. Why Jesus loved us so much. How Jesus loved us so much, because Jesus loved us so much,” Tebow continued in his sermon.

Tebow played in the NFL from 2010 to 2013 with the Denver Broncos, New York Jets, and the New England Patriots. He made a comeback in 2015 returning to the NFL with the Philadelphia Eagles, but was released from the team before the regular season started.

After announcing his interest to play baseball in 2016, Tebow signed a contract with the New York Mets, and has since played three seasons with several of the Mets’ minor league teams.

This isn’t the first time that the 32 year old has spoken out about his Christian faith. Over the years Tebow has shown many public expressions of his Christian beliefs. The football player turned baseball player became widely known for kneeling in prayer before or after his football games, which later became known as “Tebowing.”

Back in 2012, Tebow was seen praying with the New England patriots and fellow Bronco teammates following an NFL division playoff football game. The Patriots had just defeated the Broncos 45-10.

Tim Tebow doesn’t shy away from using his social media platforms to discuss his faith either. Just last week, Tebow asked his twitter followers to join him in prayer for the health care workers and public service workers who are fighting against the coronavirus pandemic.

“I also want to ask that we would just be praying for all of our first responders, for all of the families that have been effected, which is so many around the world,” he said in a video posted onto his twitter account. “We believe as Christians that our heavenly father hears our prayers…We serve a big God and big things are possible,” he added.
