HOUSTON, Texas — The New England Patriots took home the Super Bowl trophy Feb. 1, but the real winners were those who gave their lives to Christ as a result of the efforts of hundreds of volunteers involved in the Super Bowl Evangelism Project (SBEP).
In one SBEP initiative alone, 253 professions of faith were recorded as churches and individuals hosted numerous “watch parties” throughout the greater Houston area, supplanting beer and car commercials with taped interviews with Christian football players from the Houston Texans.
Former NFL football players like Derrick Harris of the St. Louis Rams and Tyrone Smith of the San Francisco 49ers gave live testimonies of their experiences as professional athletes and Christians.
