Title

Playing for Salvation

Artist Statement

I created this film with my confirmation students in mind. They learn material easier when it is metaphorically compared to their own personal interests. Here I compared the spiritual battle to the battle Tim Tebow faced publicly with his faith. He competes against an opponent, but his real competitor is the devil. This was apparent when the NFL tried to force him to no longer wear bible verses on his eye black. This was he devil fight him due to his extreme success at spreading the word of God. The one game Tim Tebow put John 3:16 on his eye black resulted in 92 million looking up the verse up on Google. Now imagine that times his hundreds of games. No wonder why the devil was angry.

How it fits into contest

Everyone is fighting the a spiritual battle as they go through life. The devil appears differently to each person as he tries to stop the good works of the Lord. From Tim Tebow to your neighbor down the street, we all have our unique battle and personal armor. Tim fought the NFL with his eye black.
