“I’m sure many folks might have scripted last nights #HeGetsUs ad differently,” said Pastor Joel Rainey. “But someone is going to have to explain to me how in holy hades pictures of Christ-followers unconditionally washing the feet of others is ‘blasphemous.’ Be serious people.”
“Let’s go @HeGetsUs. Powerful commercial,” said Dr. Derwin Gray. “The @HeGetsUs commercial was beautiful,” said Rev. Dr. Glenn Packiam.

“The HeGetsUs ads aren’t systematic theology lectures; They’re conversation starters,” said Pastor Jason Cornwell. “Some of you need to use your time better than to be angry at an ad that says Jesus washed feet.”
“Those who are upset about the He Gets Us ad because of whose feet Jesus was washing reveal the kind of God they want,” said Pastor Nate Pyle. “They want a Jesus that demands purity and righteousness so that only the deserving are saved—which aligns quite well with their desire for society at large.”
Editor’s Note: Many churches, Christian organizations and ministries have produced resources or otherwise partnered with He Gets Us, including Outreach Inc., the parent company of ChurchLeaders.com.
