Tim Tebow
Aside from being a well-known athlete, Tim Tebow is vocal about his Christian faith. He founded the Tim Tebow Foundation to bring faith, hope, and love to children around the world.
Since, Tim has gone viral with his “John 3:16 coincidence.”
The story started when Patrick, his PR manager, asked him, “Timmy, did you realize what happened?’ I was like, ‘Yeah, we just beat the Steelers. We’re going to play the Patriots.’ And he was like, ‘No, do you realize what happened?’” he shared.

“He said, ‘It’s exactly three years later from the day that you wore John 3:16 under your eyes,'” he continued. “I was like, ‘Oh, that’s really cool.'”
John 3:16 “Coincidence”
“He said, ‘No, I don’t think you realize what happened. During the game you threw for 316 yards, your yards per completion were 31.6, your yards per rush were 3.16, the ratings for the night were 31.6, and the time of possession was 31.06, and during the game 91 million people googled John 3:16 and it’s the number one trending thing on every platform,’” Tim shared.
But Tim believed it wasn’t a coincidence.
“And I was just standing there in that hallway getting ready to do this press conference thinking that that night was about a football game. And it really wasn’t. Because the God we serve is such a big God,” he said.
John 3:16 “Coincidence,” Not A Coincidence
Tim added, “Standing in that hallway, I knew it was something so much more. Because the God that we serve is a God of miracles. God does pretty amazing things in us and through us. And I think we just have to be willing to step out and say, “Here I go, God. I’m going to give You my fish and my loaves of bread.” And watch what He does with it.”
More than 90 million people searched John 3:16 that day. Believe that God can use your life in miraculous and powerful ways too!
