Ok, ok, ok... the last post was stupid and it was also a departure from the norm. Here's the real thing that God has been speaking to me about:
Last year, we had a men's ministry Superbowl party at church. At that party, we watched the personal testimony of Tony Dungy and how he has affected so many of his players, fans, and coaches through his faith. Although I was already a Dungy fan simply because he coaches the Colts, after watching this video, he became one of my heroes. That's because he has lead many of his players to Christ, and he is not ashamed or afraid to speak about his faith.
The greatest moment of the Superbowl was not Prince's performance, the two interceptions in the fourth quarter, when the clock ticked off the final second, or even when the trophy was given to the Colts owner. The greatest moment of last night was when Tony Dungy, holding the trophy, said these words:
“I’m proud to be the first African-American coach to win this. But again, more than anything, Lovie Smith and I are not only African-American but also Christian coaches, showing you can do it the Lord’s way. We’re more proud of that.”
Tony Dungy is a man after God's heart that's not afraid to let his light shine on the biggest stage and venue in the world. Thanks for being the warrior you are Tony!

I had no idea about his faith, not being much of a football fan. Thanks for sharing this information. A link to the video would be great, if it's available.
