Johnson http://echaplain.com/2007/02/02/beyond-the-ultimate-marketplace-ministry-superbowl-style/ Beyond the Ultimate adIn an ad running alongside a phenomenal story in today’s USA Today, two good friends are portrayed as making history in multiple ways. Tony Dungy and Lovie Smith are not only two African American coaches facing off in the Superbowl, but they are good friends and, more importantly, they share a strong faith in Christ.

Here in Tampa Bay, we are well-acquainted with the testimony of Tony Dungy. We’ve heard him speak, we’ve watched him pray and struggle, and we’ve mourned some hardships with him. We hated to see him go. Lovie Smith wasn’t quite as well known during his time working with Dungy on the staff of the Tampa Bay Bucs, but his story is also a powerful one.

You can read their stories on the Beyond the Ultimate website, which is operated by Athletes in Action (a ministry of Campus Crusade for Christ). They’re the ones responsible for the USA Today ad.

Way to go, guys. And a big slap on the back to Athletes in Action and Campus Crusade for making the most of an opportunity.

Of course… it raises a question: if both of them are praying to win… ?

(Hat tip to Jeff MacFarlane of The Joy FM for drawing my attention to this… and to Tim Nixon…wow!)
