Inside the "He Gets Us" campaign

Inside the "He Gets Us" campaign

It was one of the most talked about ads in the most watched Super Bowl ever: the Jesus-centered campaign He Gets Us. Executive Jason Vanderground explains what the group’s goals are, clarifies where its funding comes from, and answers a key question: who really has the image problem… Christ, or Christians?

As this live stream took place, one of my viewers commented on the groups behind He Gets Us. Clearly I missed something huge, and I’m still kicking myself. I apologize for not being more diligent. Still, it reminds me how good it is to surround yourself with people smarter than you. That certainly came in handy today.
