Tim Tebow, he of the public prayer and new understudy to GQ cover model Mark Sanchez, will be delivering a sermon in Georgetown, Texas at Celebration Church this Easter Sunday, and the church is setting up bleachers for expected crowds of 30,000 people.
We particularly like this quote from Joe Champion, the delightfully named pastor of Celebration Church: “Obviously it’s our Super Bowl,” he tells NBC Sports. “Easter is the resurrection of Christ, which we celebrate in our faith.” Easter as Super Bowl. Surely that's how the early Christians sold this thing to the Romans. At any rate, congratulations on the gig, Tebow, and good luck.
