The Superbowl advert about service

Last Sunday’s Super Bowl victory of the Kansas City Chiefs over the San Francisco 49ers ran into overtime and was quite a thrilling match. Many people look forward to watch the commercials which usually premier during the game, each costing millions of dollars for a 30 second spot. This year there were two commercials related to religion, including one that speaks of service, especially in how we can serve each other, even if we live in different camps, and are always confrontational with each other.  This brief documentary shows some scenes that appear with the message ‘Jesus didn't teach hate. He washed feet.’ The foot-washing ceremony is held on Holy Thursday, reminiscent of what Jesus did at the Last Supper, with the command ‘what I have done to you, you must do to one another.’

  1. Personally I think it is brilliant. Everyone seems to be talking and commenting on it so one way or another it is working, I reckon.
