Ep 949 | What ‘He Gets Us’ Gets Wrong

Released February 12, 2024 by Relatable with Allie Beth Stuckey

 

Today we're recapping last night's Super Bowl and breaking down the "He Gets Us" campaign, which paid for two ad spots in last night's game. We explain the two "He Gets Us" ads and how they don't actually share the gospel but instead affirm that Christianity is actually about us to people who already dislike Christianity. We talk about what this ad campaign misses about Jesus and how essential the full truth of the gospel is when you have the money, time, and ability to convey the gospel message in 45 seconds during the Super Bowl. We explain why you shouldn't be discouraged by this and how we can be praying for people to hear the real, unapologetic gospel. Then, we discuss the shooting that occurred at Joel Osteen's church yesterday afternoon and the strange pattern that this event follows.
