So Sunday at New Hope Baptist Church of East Orange, NFL didn't stand for National Football League, but rather for New Found Life - as in the church's annual NFL service and celebration.
The service drew nearly 2,000 people, including a bevy of newcomers who were in for a worship service that was anything but ordinary.
"There's more to it than just a church service," said Michael Carrington, 48, of Newark. Carrington said he is not a regular churchgoer but was so impressed with what he saw and the spirit of the congregation that he wants to become a member.
