St. Lucie Mets' left fielder Tim Tebow will speak before the members of the non-denominational Christian Church called the Liquid Church in Parsipanny, New Jersey on Nov. 12. Tebow's message will focus on his career as an athlete and his reflection on all the ordeals he endured with his faith and beliefs.
Tebow is recognized as one of the most religious athletes in the National Football League (NFL) and Minor League Baseball (MLB). Tebow was a quarterback for several NFL teams before entering the MLB. In Nov. 5, the Liquid Church's new Broadcast Campus will officially open its doors to the public. On Nov. 12, the church will hold an event and it will be hosted by Tebow.
In an interview with Daily Record, Tim Lucas, Liquid Church's lead pastor, expressed his happiness that the athlete will grace the event and even speak before the people. "Not only is Tebow an exceptional athlete, but he also has a huge heart and an important message to share that reflects on his career and how to endure tough times," he said.
Tebow also took the stage to several religious events and encouraged young people to practice their faith and become role models. Many of the church members are excited to see and hear what Tebow has to say. The year 2017 has been a productive year for Tebow as an athlete, football analyst, and author. He was promoted to Higher Class A League by the Mets in June. There are also rumors that he is being considered to replace Jim McElwain as the Florida Gators' football coach.
The 2007 Heisman Trophy winner is also a part of the ESPN's Sec Nation show as a football analyst. Tebow also published his book "Know Who You Are. Live Like It Matters" in May. The book is all about encouraging people to find their true identity through God and love for others.
