Minding The Truth | Peyton Manning’s Christian Faith

By posting this I'm not endorsing everything on this site, but I thought some might be interested in this article (w/book excerpt) that gives a lot of insight into Peyton Manning's Christian faith. He may not be the most vocal Christian out there (loved his explanation as to why...), but the way he lives it every day speaks volumes.

Pure class, as always...

You serious, Clark? Before this I had never heard a thing about his faith. I think the last Denver QB to win a playoff game was fairly vocal.

I'm assuming you posted that to show he's a hypocrite?

We all fail, whether in word, thought or deed.

I don't know Peyton, and I'm not vouching for his Faith, but the beauty of Grace is that it is for us even when we aren't for ourselves.

I'm not sure what you mean. Did you read my post? I said he ISN'T the most vocal Christian out there. In fact, as the article makes clear, that's not his style.

To the guy who posted the video of Peyton 'cussing,' there's a passage in Matthew you should read - something about motes and eyes and all that... check it out.

Each person's religion/beliefs are their own and I wouldn't began to judge because mine are different than others...

that being said, maybe there should be an "Everything religous subforum" so that threads on the topic don't get blasted halfway through them.

And for the whole, "don't click if you don't want to read" thing that will be said right after this one, good job!

Well said! If not for God's Grace I would be in big trouble.

I was never was a Tebow fan on the field, but it takes a man of devout faith to be as vocal about Christianity as he is.

Really! Before anyone goes and criticizes Peyton for cussing they should check out the Billy Graham/Nixon tapes. Billy Graham is easily recognized as one of the most important and influential Christian evangelists in the modern era, and the guy absolutely cusses like a drunken sailor! :eek:lol:

Love that Peyton has this aspect of his life private and non-promotional. Just another line on a rather long list of why this fellow is so classy. No public kneeling for effect in the middle of the field, no promotional Bible verses on his eye black, no constant barrage of mugging into cameras of "hey look at me super Christian!!!", just a private aspect of this very classy complicated and perhaps best pro football QB of all time.

I know using God's name in vain is one thing, but who made these "cuss words" we speak of that we are forbidden to say? Society puts so much emphasis on these words when they are man made. Whose to say what really are "cuss words"?

I couldn't disagree with you more.
