Why I Like Mike - Reason One


Duh, he has Chuck Norris supporting him. But, seriously Chuck has quite a testimony of his own:
He grew up in a poor family. His father was an alcoholic who deserted them. And he came back from that stacked deck to be a wealthy, great man.
But he still realized something was wrong. He had everything but was ignoring God.
In his own words:
“My faith would be tested over and over throughout my martial arts and movie
careers, when I, like so many before me, had succumbed to the enticements of
fame and fortune. As resilient as I thought I was, I bit and swallowed the hook
of the Hollywood lifestyle. It would cost me my marriage and cripple my faith.”

I think some of us can relate to that today… (Well maybe not the rich and famous part.)
Chuck ending up realizing that he needed to be concerned with not only saving people from bad guys with a timely roundhouse, but with ultimately saving his own soul by embracing Christ.
He is now a columnist at WorldNetDaily (quite a good one, I might add), and he is kicking butt and taking names with a keyboard.
“I no longer fit the mold. I'm not a liberal actor from Hollywood. I'm not
politically correct, in my opinions or my practice. And though I'm concerned
with what people think, I will not compromise the truth in any form to cater to
others, even with religion and politics.” – Chuck Norris
