George Foreman Recalls Incredible Conversion: 'Jesus Christ Is Coming Alive in Me!'
Рет қаралды 100,002
Жыл бұрынInside the ring and out, George Foreman was a man driven by anger and resentment - raging emotion that drove him to become the world heavyweight champion in 1973. More than a decade later, he did it again, but the driving force behind that record-breaking comeback was profoundly different.
Foreman abruptly walked away from his boxing career for the first time in 1977, after a significant spiritual awakening. Growing up, his mother - a single parent raising six children in the Fifth Ward community of Houston - spoke of God often, a habit of which Foreman was not fond. But those words, seeds planted over time, sprung to life for the boxing champion as he recuperated in his locker room after a fight.
"My first time around, I was just ambitious: I wanted to be top heavyweight champion of the world ... rich and famous and that whole thing," Foreman recently told CBN's Faithwire. "Then, all of the sudden, I hit that rock. I found out there was more to life. I found God on the dressing room table, screaming, 'Jesus Christ is coming alive in me!'"

George Foreman's story sounds like something out of the Old Testament, where he hits rock bottom as a human being, follows his faith, and then wins the impossible battle at 46. It's inspiring and now a movie tells the story to people who need to hear it.

The Love and Respect I have for my brother in Christ , knows no bounds. I remember staying up in the early 1970's to watch him fight, and he was so mean, then to watch him fight Tommy and to see the peace of Christ. Now that is a miracle. To see one of the hardest punching men in history who was nasty to the core, show up with that Power , to give glory to the Lord.. this is the miracle God performs every day on those whom He loves. The depth and breadth and height and depravity of the natural man is limitless in its hatred of Christ, yet the prodigal son story in Luke's Gospel and the prodigal son story of George Foreman can be our story. Soli Deio Gloria.
