Tim Tebow is doing some back-tracking, it appears.
After it was announced last week that he would speak at a Dallas Baptist megachurch April 28, the outspoken Christian tweeted Thursday that, due to "new information", he would not be making the trip.
"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," Tebow said in a series of tweets. "Due to new information that has been brought to my attention, I have decided to cancel my upcoming appearance. I will continue to use the platform God has blessed me with to bring Faith, Hope and Love to all those needing a brighter day. Thank you for all of your love and support. God Bless!"
Whether the "new information" had anything to do with CBSSports.com's Gregg Doyel's scathing column on the church and its pastor, Robert Jeffress, remains to be seen. Jeffress has spoken out in the past against Muslims, Jews, Mormons and homosexuals.
Though Tebow hasn't shied away from controversy with regards to his beliefs -- recall the pro-life commercial from the Super Bowl a few seasons ago -- it appears that Jeffress' reputation and, perhaps more specifically his much-publicized hate speech, scared the image-conscious Tebow away.
