During a recent interview on Fox News, the 2007 Heisman Trophy winner opened up to host Brian Kilmeade about the importance of trusting that our lives have "a purpose."

Tebow, 35, was promoting his new book Mission Possible: One-Year Devotion. The book includes 2-to-5-minute readings for every day of the year.
