Author, speaker, activist, college football analyst, and more, Tim Tebow joined the FLAGRANT Podcast, where he discussed why he no longer lives with “sin, shame, or guilt.”
“I don’t have to live in this sin, shame and guilt. I’m more than a conqueror through him who loved me and he has placed me here for this moment, I get to live in a confidence because when we go back to hope, I believe that the best Biblical definition for hope is to look forward with confidence, expectation and anticipation,” Tebow shared.

Show host, Andrew Schulz then added, “I think, a lot of times for for people, maybe who weren’t raised in a church or haven’t been devout Christians, right? There is this version where maybe some of us are seeing you, what we would say maybe, like, harp on the things that are quote, unquote wrong about you, or like, sins right? And what we don’t realize is that you can accept those things about yourself, because Jesus has already died for them.
“When you don’t add that other component, there’s a hyper fixation on all the bad things that you do consistently,” Schulz continued. “And I think to somebody on the outside, they might go like, how could you have confidence if you’re constantly tearing yourself down with all these bad things, but true belief that somebody else bears the consequence, or has already beared the consequences for those things, man, what a weight off your shoulders like to be able to confront the things that you struggle with every single day, knowing thaft you’re forgiven for them.”
Tebow and Schulz have both experienced the freedom that comes from salvation in Jesus.
As the Apostle Paul wrote in Romans 8:1-4, “Therefore, there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus, 2 because through Christ Jesus the law of the Spirit who gives life has set you free from the law of sin and death. 3 For what the law was powerless to do because it was weakened by the flesh, God did by sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh to be a sin offering. And so he condemned sin in the flesh, 4 in order that the righteous requirement of the law might be fully met in us, who do not live according to the flesh but according to the Spirit.”
Tebow and Schulz encouraged listeners to put their salvation in Jesus because in Jesus there is no more sin, shame, or guilt.
