Focus on the Family Commercial

Did anyone else see it?

Whit's wiping down the counter, Connie's mopping the floor, and the kids are sipping on their milkshakes. If you want to talk about Adventures in Odyssey the radio drama, this is the spot to do just that!

Focus on the Family Commercial

Post by Graces4you »

I was in sitting with my dogs,while my dad was watching the football game that's on tonight when all of a sudden I hear a commercial with kids reciting John 3:16, I went out to see what organization it was for and it was Focus, which surprised both of us because it's not something we usually would expect. Did anyone else see it ?

Yes! I was eating dinner and was so surprised to hear that during a football game. Kudos to FotF!

I think that is so awesome. I didn't see it on TV, but that is so great. =D> It not only promotes Christ, but also Focus and their ministry.

Facebook'd.

Tebow gets some credit for this too. I'm sure Focus decided to air it due to all the people searching "John 3:16" last week. \:D/

Wow. That's pretty good. And during a football game. Who knew a TV station would have something like that on. I guess it's all about the money for the owners of the station. It has a great message, and I hope lots of people listened to it.

Kinda hard to see it when you don't have a TV. Anywho, the Latter-Day Saints (a religious) group always has commercials on the sports broadcasts. I will have to say if I heard a FOTF commercial during a Bulls, Colts, Cincy, or Reds game I would be shocked. For one must commercial pertain to the sport. Two, the commercials are either sponsors for the team or sponsors for the radio station.
