PORT ST. LUCIE, FL—Playing in his second instructional league baseball game with the New York Mets organization Thursday, Tim Tebow was hit by a pitch from lefty Chandler Hawkins during his third at bat. According to witnesses, the former NFL player immediately threw down his bat and aggressively charged the pitcher’s mound—but rather than engaging in the traditional fistfight or shoving match, Tebow rushed out to immediately forgive Hawkins face to face.

I told him it was OK, everyone makes mistakes, and his defensiveness just melted away,” said Tebow. “The Bible says to go to your brother and settle your grievances one-on-one, but if that fails, to bring 2 or 3 brothers with you the next time. I guess that’s why a lot of my teammates came running out of the dugout. They wanted to make sure we followed the Biblical model of reconciliation. I love these guys.”

While others receive praise for kneeling during the National Anthem, this guy took heat for consistently putting his faith in action, but one thing you can never fault him for is giving it lip service and not putting it into action. What a character. I really respect this guy. He doesn't know quit.
