I always admired Steve McQueen which I cannot say except for a handful of actors.

I admire him now much more for knowing of his acceptance of Jesus as his Savior and the manner of his death, the happy death that Christians are promised.

It is inspiration that helps me prepare for my own.

Here’s an article I recalled from FR. Talks about his later years in life when he lived in a hangar at a small airport and learned to fly. He was an “ordinary” Joe that drank Old Milwaukee beer and took care of a guy’s 6 kids when he had some medical problems. It was one of the other pilots that told him about Jesus.
