People are people I don’t care what color they are.

The foot washing commercial was awesome. The message was basically that Jesus was here to serve people. All people. Jew, gentile, black, white, it doesn’t matter. Just matters that we are all on the same sin ship going straight to hell without Him. Powerful message on a huge platform.

I don’t watch a lot of NFL but that is more because of the way the game is played. I like college football better. But I watch the playoffs because I like football.

Regarding the footwashing commercial, like many things on the surface it’s a good message. And I love reaching across the aisle to engage the skeptics. But the people that those ads will appeal to are not looking to understand the gospel. Those for it will say “At least it will draw them to Christ” and my rebuttal is “What Christ are they finding when they get there? Christ DOES change US..
