Mickey's Mantle of Faith

Here is an article about how Yankee great trusted Christ for salvation late in life:

It's October – World Series time.
During much of his Hall of Fame baseball career, Mickey Mantle was a fixture in the Fall Classic.
He was known as a great baseball slugger.
He was known as the fastest man in the major leagues.
And he was known as a hell-raiser off the field.
But two of Mickey Mantle's closest friends – Bobby Richardson and Pat Summerall – say that's not how he died 11 years ago. And, had he lived to see his 75th birthday tomorrow, the world would have a much different picture of the New York Yankee great.

Tim Tebow

Check out this article from ESPN about how Tim Tebow, Florida heisman trophy winner quarterback, uses his football prowess as an opportunity to share the Gospel of Jesus Christ!

The article tells how Tebow, homeschooled missionary kid, visited two prisons in Florida on April 19th.

I also wrote about Tebow here.

Tim Tebow

No heisman for Chase Daniel, sorry MU friends.

Glad it happened to Tim Tebow, though. A home-schooled missionary kid who lives out his faith by visiting orphanages in the Philipines run by his parents and preaches at state prisons in Florida.

Tebow made history by becoming the first freshman/sophomore to win the heisman!

Here is a story some time back by the NY Times about Tebow.

Congrats, Tim!
