Tim Tebow (pronounced Tee-bo) did not make himself eligible for the recent NFL Draft.

Instead, the phenomenal Florida quarterback will return to play for the Gators next season in his junior year.

Last December, Tebow won college football’s most prestigious award, the Heisman Trophy.

Tebow has enjoyed a great career that will only get better.

He owes a great deal to his parents, especially his mother.

When Tebow’s mother got pregnant with Tim, she was working with her husband as missionaries in the Philippines. The pregnancy was a difficult one, and doctors encouraged Pam Tebow for seven months to get an abortion because the fetus was damaged. They even predicted a stillbirth.

Pam Tebow would have none of it.

Because of her faith, courage, and refusal to abort her son, today Tim is a healthy, athletic, star football player.
