A pro-life Super Bowl ad featuring the personal story of former Florida Gators quarterback Tim Tebow has some women’s groups calling foul.

Most of us have thought how much easier it would be to follow God if we could just see Him once. The truth, though, is that He is all around us. We just fail to see recognize the evidence. There are many things, like gravity for example, which we can’t see, but that we know are real because we see their effects on the world around us. In the same way, we can’t see God, but we can see Him at work in this world. He is making Himself known, and the proof is all around us.

Darrin Crowder lived a valiant soldier’s life, but after a second failed marriage, he remembered the truths he’d learned in church and sought God. His faith was tested as this Green Beret.

The first element of our armor is truth (vs. 14). This is easy to understand, since Satan is said to be the “father of lies” (John 8:44). Deception is high on the list of things God considers to be abominations. A “lying tongue” is one of the things He describes as “detestable to Him” (Proverbs 6:16-17). He clearly states that no liar will be admitted into heaven (Revelation 22:14-15). We are therefore exhorted to put on truth for our own sanctification and deliverance and for the benefit of those to whom we are a witness.
