I’m listening to Michael Graham on the way home last night. It is at most a 15 minute drive so there isn’t much exposure to the program and I frequently tune in in the middle of some topic. Last night I caught part of a segment on Tim Tebow, the sudden attention he has attracted, and of course his faith.
One caller in particular caught my ear, not based on his feelings about Tebow but due to his complete lack of understanding about the nature of faith, and in this case Tebow’s public expression of it. The caller kept saying that he thought it was a bit goofy because there was no way God would really care about the NFL or the outcome of a football game. So his understanding of Tebow’s faith relationship was limited to a supernatural interest in sports and Tebow seeking divine intervention to affect an outcome in his favor.
I think I would have to agree…that God is not betting on the Broncos. But then that is probably not what Tebow is praying for.
