Guy catches a pass, zips down the sidelines and into the end zone for a touchdown. Then he drops to one knee, bows his head and prays. To tell the truth, I'm undecided on this one. Certainly, Christian athletes should show good sportsmanship, play hard, and play by the rules. Quarterback Danny Wuerffel, the 1996 Heisman Trophy winner from the University of Florida, clasped his hands in prayer and looked to the heavens after every touchdown pass.
Some people say religion has nothing to do with sports.
I don't buy that. I think that our faith has something to do with everything we do, including sports. Yes, Christian athletes should acknowledge God. I'm just not sure exactly how to best go about it. Please send me your thoughts on the subject.
