From Sportskeeda. The Super Bowl is a time when the best of the best in the NFL come together to put on an absolute show with much of the world watching. It’s also a time when advertisers put on their best show.

Pray for your fellow intercessor.

According to Fortune Magazine, a group of anonymous donors is preparing to spend a pretty penny on what has been described as an “authentic Jesus ad”. [Other disagree about their portrayal and its shallow gospel message.]

“It’s the latest in a series of commercials that have run for the past 10 months under the banner ‘He Gets Us.’” …

[The] advertisers maintain that they’re not being political.

“We’re not ‘left’ or ‘right’ or a political organization of any kind. We’re also not affiliated with any particular church or denomination. We simply want everyone to understand the authentic Jesus as he’s depicted in the Bible—the Jesus of radical forgiveness, compassion, and love.”

Despite the controversy, the advertisers expect the ads to run and do well during the Super Bowl. … They also plan on running more of the same ads long after the big game. …
