Redskins' Gibbs Keeps the Faith: Strong Christian Beliefs Provide Foundation for Super Bowl-Winning Coach

Well isn't that nice....There are a lot of Christians in the league who don't win. Maybe they are not Christian enough? I'm sorry but people take religion way too seriously. If Gibbs doesn't win are we going blame his faith?

I'm not saying Gibbs isn't going to win but one must admit that it is a possibility.

Good article. Thought I would read about a page or 2 of it I ended up reading the whole thing. God Bless Joe Gibbs. God Bless The Redskins.

yes that's correct God bless our coach and team!! A lot of people don't understand who Our Lord really is ! I allways believe that if it is important to his people it is important to him he is a Loving God ! And he is the main reason for our Redskins to really start winning again! The Redskins will not only start winning but more so bring Glory to Jesus!!

Something tells me the Lord probably has more important matters to tend to than the Washington Redskins.

...people take religion way too seriously.

LOL. Think about that statement.

I'm happy that people find comfort in whatever they choose, however I'd like to see a seperation of Church and Sports.

As Matt mentioned, a deity should have more pressing issues than a points spread or a sack total. Now if I were God.......

I love God and Jesus and I think it is great for any Coach and or person to lean on the Lord but I don't find any thing in the Bible that says He'll pick sides in a football game or help one guy over the next.

Do good things happen to Joe Gibbs because of his faith? I would think maybe some do but would still suggest he take a great set of Game Plans along with his Bible when heading to FED/EX Field.

Keep the faith Joe!

peace and prayers

I think that faith allows a player/coach/fan to better handle the highs and lows of sports. As to whether God takes a side in sports, of course he does. Against the Cubs.

God live's in a man'a heart not a football field, the fact that football is played on a sunday, and detract's the focus and worship of god, you can rest assured GOD is no lover of football, or anything else for that matter that's done on sunday [THE LORD'S DAY], that take's away from the focus and worship of the lord.
