No matter how busy he is, former NFL star Tim Tebow always has time for his fans.
While he was shooting a video for his second book entitled "Shaken: Discovering Your True Identity in the Midst of Life's Storms" in Loray Mill, Gastonia, North Carolina, 11-year-old Phillip Williams, son of Gaston County Commissioner Jason Williams, left a note under Tebow's door asking for his autograph.
Much to the surprise of the Williams family, Tebow not only gave Phillip an autograph but he also personally went to meet with them.
"What you see on TV is what you get. He was very gracious," Jason tells the Gaston Gazette. "My kids were really star-struck. As Christians, we appreciate the way he lives out his faith and promotes a biblical worldview in our culture."
Aside from the Williams family, Tebow also took some time to visit another fan named David Masters and his athletic trainer Jordan Chapman.
"He was just very kind, down to earth and very genuine," gushes Masters. "He didn't have to come out there and talk to us. When he opened the door, he had his Bible in his hands, and I just thought, 'Man, this guy's for real.'"
Tebow's second book is all about his challenging and short-lived NFL career, according to The Christian Post.
"First, he was a beloved college football champion, media sensation, and best-selling author drafted in the first round of the 2010 Draft. Then he had a miracle playoff run with the Denver Broncos before being traded to the New York Jets," the book's description reads. "After one season, he was cut by New York, next signed by the New England Patriots, then let go after training camp. Tim Tebow has achieved big victories and plunged the depths of failure, all while holding firm to his faith."
