What Tim Tebow's Superbowl Ad means for your marriage.

It's Super Bowl week and this year that means controversy over the advertisement Focus on the Family has taken out featuring Tim Tebow.

What is astounding frankly is the outrage over this ad that simply tells Tim's life story in 30 seconds. The National Organization of Women and other political groups are up in arms because Tim's mom made a CHOICE...it's simply not the choice these organizations would like women to make. On the contrary it was a choice that was self-less rather than self-serving.

For a great read from a national media outlet check out Washington Post columnist Sally Jenkins article

So what does this mean for your marriage? Simple, much like Mrs. Tebow made a choice to keep Tim, we in marriage have to CHOOSE. Choose to be self-less rather than self-serving. Choose to put your spouses needs above your own. Choose to honor your vows and commitment.

You chose at the alter
You choose everyday
It's your CHOICE!

Blessings~

Tim Tebow is a great role model for kids and young adults today and the world needs more like him. I agree with the Washington Post writer who commented that why isn't it ok to show Tim's ad but it is ok to show women in bikinis selling beer. Maybe if Tim told his story in a Speedo, the women of NOW would not be protesting the message. It is all about choices and anything we can do to help direct young people today to make the right choices, I say Go For IT!

I choose every day to love the man God has given me. I was in too many bad relationships to mess up a good one. A friend of mine wrote a wonderful article about Tim Tebow's ad also :) Thanks for all you do to prioritize marriages.
