Pastor Gave A One Minute Sermon Last Sunday So That He Could Catch Kickoff [Video]

It's not exactly a conflict of interest, is it?

Pastor Tim Christensen of Gold Hill Lutheran Church, in Butte, Montana will tell you that he is a life long, die-hard 49ers fan.

Unfortunately for Pastor Tim, Sunday is a busy day for football and worship, and this past Sunday, January 12, was also the beginning of the NFL playoff season as the 49ers took on the Panthers.

The football loving pastor didn't want to miss the kickoff so he offered his flock this abbreviated service.

The universe didn't seem to mind Pastor Tim's short sermon. His beloved 49ers won the game by 13 points.
