Controversial Pastor Punches Back After Tebow Cancellation; Rips ‘Wimping Out'

NEW YORK (CBSNewYork) – The controversial pastor of a megachurch in Dallas spoke to his congregation on Sunday about “a wild week,” which centered around a scheduled appearance by Jets backup quarterback Tim Tebow.

Tebow canceled his April 28 visit to First Baptist Dallas on Thursday amid a firestorm, sparked by past comments from the church's head, Dr. Robert Jeffress, who has made headlines for his comments on gays and religions other than Christianity.
