There will be no Tebowing at the controversial First Baptist Church of Dallas on April 28.
After receiving angry backlash for agreeing to appear as a “special guest” for two services at the church run by pastor Dr. Robert Jeffress, who has openly spoken out against gays and other religions, Tim Tebow has canceled his visit.
"While I was looking forward to sharing a message of hope and Christ's unconditional love with the faithful members of the historic First Baptist Church of Dallas in April, due to new information that has been brought to my attention, I have decided to cancel my upcoming appearance," the NFL quarterback and devout Christina tweeted on Thursday.
