Their website.

They post some hot topic issues but they seem to always point it back to Jesus.

Jury is still out in my opinion but so far they seem like they’re really trying to make the gospel known before anything political.

If that is indeed the case, more power to them.

Yet in today’s fractured culture, any mass marketing campaign to promote eternal religious truths might as well have been a series of ads featuring Rorschach blots.

We live in a culture in which the once universal definition of what constitutes a “man” or “woman” is under assault.

Somehow the only hot topics they hit deal with conservative causes. They use a lot of #justice and #activism on there.

Did a little digging and the "movement" is paid for by the servant foundation. The servant foundation is from a church in Oklahoma that is united methodist. So given they havent shed the UNITED part they are a liberal activist group until proven otherwise.


How about making an ad at Christmastime about Mary having an unplanned pregnancy that she didnt abort? How about an ad about Joseph raising a son?


Why make a random ad about immigration given that immigration has nothing to do with salvation?

That's the stated purpose. They could have gone 100 directions without getting political, but that woke "Jesus was a refugee" commercial lost me. FWIW, this organization is funded by several mega-wealthy "conservatives", who no doubt have profited from cheap illegal labor
