Restaurants in DeLand, Florida

We’ve been able to explore some of the many good restaurants in DeLand, Florida, often walking from Stetson University campus to the historic downtown. I’ll add to this list over time.  We recommend all of these.

Bill & Frank’s Brickhouse Grill has delicious food, but can get too crazy-busy on a weekend night, so try another time.

Click on The Tebow Story for a video interview with Tim Tebow’s parents as they reveal God’s hand on Tim’s life even before he was conceived. I could not help but think … Continue reading Tim Tebow

Reaching Millions with Bible Verses… and a Dedicated Life

Tonight, the University of Florida Gators will play in the Sugar Bowl against undefeated Cincinnati. As he does in every game, Gators quarterback, Tim Tebow, will have a different Bible verse written on his eye black. I read recently that when Tim wore John 3:16 under his eyes last season, Google recorded 93 million hits that day! So, I decided to check Google Trends for a handful of this season’s games and found that the verses I checked were number one for Google searches on game days. . . and not just number one, but “volcanic,” indicating a high volume. … Continue reading Reaching Millions with Bible Verses… and a Dedicated Life

If you like college football, you might enjoy reading about University of Florida’s quarterback, Tim Tebow, and his brother. Peter Tebow is also at the University of Florida, but as a staff intern of Campus Crusade for Christ. We have enjoyed following Tim Tebow’s college career and the influence he has had as a dedicated follower of Christ. Naturally, we were very interested in learning about Peter Tebow and his influence on others’ lives as well. Two articles and photos about Peter Tebow are available here: • from Campus Crusade’s web site, with a photo of the Tebow family • … Continue reading Two Tebows
