| Tim Tebow announced on Twitter that he will no longer appear at First Baptist Church of Dallas after it caused a national uproar among journalists and gay marriage supporters. The announcement blindsided church officials and led some Christian leaders to wonder if Tebow was appeasing those who don’t support the biblical definition of marriage. “While I was looking forward to sharing a message of hope and Christ’s unconditional love with the faithful members of the historic First Baptist Church of Dallas in April,

Comments: Sure hope it has nothing to do with the church´s position on same sex marriage. That would be disappointment.

I think while Tebow is still in the NFL, these kinds of wars with protestors is not in his best interest. When he retires, and if he becomes more full time in ministry or public appearances, then that´s another thing altogether.
And I´m not fan of Jeffress anyway....I agree with him on most issues, but he´s not politically astute or helpful. He told his congregation to stay home on election day.

Interesting that he lets "journalists and gay marriage supporters" have that much influence on his life.
He should stand up for what he believes in. There are more of "us" than there re of "them."

It appears that Tebow has caved to the Stalinist, totalitarian, full-of-hate gay left, a tiny minority within a tiny minority but nevertheless loud and obnoxious.

Don´t believe the LSM. First Baptist has also said some horrible things against Catholics, Jews, Hindus, Buddhists, etc.
The LGBTBBQOMG cabal has seized upon Tebow´s cancellation in a clever PR stunt.

The article says that Tebow explained to Jeffress that because of things going on in his personal and professional life, he "really needed to avoid controversy." It does sound a bit as if he doesn´t have the courage of his convictions.

Leave tebow alone. He had a right to speak wherever. The slime press wouldn´t. Do this to a lib. A Muslim. A Jew. An atheist. Heck no. This is just starting to smell. Enough.....

Don´t know much about this church, but not sure if I believe what was said. He doesn´t need this. he is a football player, practice that. He is not a great speaker. He believes what he says and apparently lives what he beleives, but why deal with this mess?

Spare me. That´s all the further I had to read.
Perhaps "some Christian leaders" need to get a life...

Tebow is trying to save his football career. 2013 is his last shot. Very few teams are willing to offer him a shot. He needs to avoid controversy and try to learn how to throw a football at the NFL level. Next year when he´s playing in Canada he can make these appearances.

#4 has it right. Some very ugly anti semitic commentary by this Church made this an unacceptable venue for Tebow.
This has nothing to do with his football career.
Before you jump all over someone try to get the facts first.

And how do we know it´s because of these particular protestors? Maybe it´s some of the other ugly things the church has put forth put a crimp in Tebow´s plans. Or maybe he just doesn´t want the media attacking the church goers as they certainly will.
He and his family have been braver than most of us ever would. From being staunchly pro-life, to abstinence, they´ve bucked the pop culture establishment in a big way. Anyone saying he doesn´t have courage should try walking in his shoes.

Tebow declined to fight a battle he can´t win.
the gays know that they can easily pressure NFL owners not to hire a "gay-hater" like Tebow. So they saw the opportunity to slam the door on Tim´s career. And it would have worked.
So some time you have to know when to fold ´em. Tim does. Be encouraged by this. He isn´t done yet. And frankly... he is still a kid. Let´s not give him a break. Let´s realize the gays have him in the proverbial trick bag, have the upper hand on Tebow at the moment. Will that last? No way. Tebow will pay them back for this.

Satans minions were furious when Tebow´s devotion was widely accepted by mainstream America... So they are attempting to destroy him. The move to NJ was clearly an effort to take him off the nat´l stage.
Tebow is in the fight of his life against miscreants bent on painting him as fringe. He needs to preserve his ability to influence wide swathes of non-believers.
Pray some team puts God before Satan & restores Tebow to his mission by allowing him back on the nat´l stage.

Thursday evening in Chicago, black grassroots activists fed up with manipulation of their suffering by city leadership turned out to protest a fundraiser for President Obama held by Mayor Rahm Emanuel and Illinois Speaker of the General Assembly Michael Madigan. According to the protesters, Emanuel, Madigan, and Obama pretend to try to help their community but do nothing to curb the funneling of money and contracts to corrupt community organizations and union-controlled worksites that won’t hire black labor.

Michelle Obama has admitted that she is already tired of the bangs she first sported in January. The First Lady said in an interview with Entertainment Tonight: ´Bangs are a day-by-day proposition. They´re starting to grow out, get a little irritating.´ Still, she hasn´t let her hairdo woes get her down. ´It´s okay,´ she said after her initial complaint. ´We´ll be good.´ The first indication that her hairstyle was becoming a burden came about last weekend, when Malia, 14, was spotted adjusting her mother´s hair during the White House Easter Egg Roll.

"I don´t understand it," the Arizona Republican said on Sunday of the threat coming from Sen. Rand Paul,Sen. Ted Cruz, Sen. Mike Lee and nine other Republicans. "The purpose of the United States Senate is to debate and to vote and to let the people know where we stand.” "What are we afraid of? ...

Recent research indicates that the number of people who do not consider themselves a part of an organized religion is steadily on the rise. Interestingly enough, though the number of those religiously unaffiliated is increasing, there is little to no trend in the number of those who express atheist or agnostic beliefs. People aren’t saying they don’t believe in God. They’re saying they don’t believe in religion. They are not rejecting Christ. They are rejecting the church. This begs the question, “Why are we losing our religion?”

Los Angeles — Some people have had it with TV. They´ve had enough of the 100-plus channel universe. They don´t like timing their lives around network show schedules. They´re tired of $100-plus monthly bills. A growing number of them have stopped paying for cable and satellite TV service, and don´t even use an antenna to get free signals over the air. (Snip) Last month, the Nielsen Co. started labeling people in this group "Zero TV" households, because they fall outside the traditional definition of a TV home. There are 5 million of these residences in the U.S., up from

On Friday, Sean Hannity brought Pat Smith, mother of the late Sean Smith, on his radio program. The 34-year-old information management officer was one of four Americans murdered in the Benghazi embassy attack on September 11, 2012. In the chilling interview, a distraught Ms. Smith, in tears, pleaded for answers and spoke of the efforts to silence her. Ms. Smith first relayed how her son, prior to the attack, requested additional security in advance and warned the State Department: He did tell them, ahead of time, he typed it into his little typewriter over there,

Put out an all-points bulletin: Millions of Americans have gone missing from the workforce. Every month that those would-be workers are gone raises the odds that they might never come back, dimming the prospects for future economic growth. The vanishing trend is more than a decade old, but it accelerated during the Great Recession. Throughout 2012, economists held out hope that it had stopped. But then came Friday’s jobs report, and hopes were dashed. The Labor Department reported that the U.S. labor force — everyone who has a job or is looking for one — shrank

I hope all will look at a lifetime of service over some poorly chosen words.” Carson will remain as commencement speaker at Johns Hopkins,

Susan Patton, the Princeton alumna who became famous for her letter urging Ivy League women to use their college years to find a mate, has been denounced as a traitor to feminism, to coeducation, to the university ideal. But really she’s something much more interesting: a traitor to her class. Her betrayal consists of being gauche enough to acknowledge publicly a truth that everyone who’s come up through Ivy League culture knows intuitively —

Gluten-free diets are all the rage, but they can be dangerous if not done right. What is gluten? It´s the spongy complex of proteins, found naturally in wheat, rye, and barley, that gives elasticity to dough and allows it to rise. When flour is moistened and either kneaded or mixed into dough, gluten molecules form an elastic, microscopic latticework that traps the carbon dioxide produced when yeast ferments, causing dough to inflate like a hot air balloon. Baking hardens the gluten, which helps the finished product keep its shape. Wheat — and gluten — is ubiquitous in the American diet.

Newtown killer Adam Lanza may have launched his murder spree at Sandy Hook Elementary School as an “act of revenge,” the Daily News has learned. A close friend of Lanza’s mother told The News that the troubled boy was a target of relentless bullying when he attended the Connecticut school years ago. “I think Adam felt betrayed by the school and this was his act of revenge,” said Marvin LaFontaine, a friend of Nancy Lanza’s. “Nancy told me he was being picked on at school. That they were just torturing him.” Source and text corrected by Staff.

ATTLEBORO, Mass. — As many as 25 students at a Massachusetts school were denied lunch this week — with at least some forced to dump their food in the garbage — because they couldn´t pay, school officials and parents said. Outraged parents said some students at Coelho Middle School in Attleboro cried when they were told by a worker for the district´s food service provider they could not eat on Tuesday because they couldn´t pay or their pre-paid accounts were short on funds. The on-site director for the company, Whitsons Culinary Group of Islandia, N.Y., was placed on administrative leave by
