Ilkin to share story of faith

There was something about the lives of several teammates that intrigued Pittsburgh Steeler Tunch Ilkin more than 20 years ago.

"They were different. There was something about them that I had never seen in men before," he said. "They had a sense of humility, a sense of joy, and they had a love for each other. They lived a life that demanded an explanation."

When he got to know Jon Kolb, John Stallworth, Donnie Shell, Ted Peterson and Craig Wolfley, he discovered what it was.

"It was not the Super Bowl or Pro Bowls or money," Ilkin said. "The most important thing in their lives was that they had a relationship with Jesus Christ."

Man, I could not pass this up. How awesome in times like these it is to read something so positive and uplifting. Gives me hope that not all players are like T.O., Sapp and Moss.
