Capital Christian Center Youths Pledge Abstinence, Thank Tim Tebow
Young adults at the Rosemont church have begun to upload videos pledging abstinence.
A group of teens and 20-somethings are following in the steps of NFL superstar Tim Tebow and pledging to abstain from sex until they're married.
The group, calling itself "We Will Wait," was formed partially in response to a website offering $1 million to anyone who can prove they've slept with the New York Jets quarterback.
"The reality we are creating is building a foundation for brokenness and pain," We Will Wait says on its website. "Though we label it casual [sex], our hearts and emotions know it’s anything but."
