NFL Opening Week Filled With Praise for JESUS – And It Didn’t Stop There /Sport and Faith

NFL opening week was filled with public displays of Christian faith. From Jalen Hurts praying before kickoff, to John Harbaugh speaking about “our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ,” Jaxon Smith-Njigba saying “Thank you Jesus,” Ryan Flournoy arriving in JESUS SAVES clothing, players from opposing teams praying together, and Amazing Grace ringing around an NFL stadium – the moments just kept coming. In this video, we look back at some of the most powerful Christian moments from across the opening week of the NFL season, and then consider the message behind two simple words: JESUS SAVES. Because Christian faith is about far more than motivation, success or sport. The Bible says salvation is a gift of God’s grace through Jesus Christ – who lived without sin, died for sinners and rose again. “For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith… it is the gift of God.” — Ephesians 2:8–9 If you enjoy stories about athletes and coaches publicly living out their Christian faith, subscribe for more.
