Christian Super Bowl Ad Rejected

On the first half of the program today, I will speak with Larry Taunton - founder and Executive Director of Fixed Point Foundation. Fixed Point Foundation is committed to promoting a confident Christianity in the public square, fortifying the minds of Christians and challenging the faith of skeptics. They do so in a number of ways, including their website (www.fixed-point.org), Latimer House Luncheons and by hosting some high-profile debates. Fixed-point recently produced a commercial that they wanted to run during this year's Super Bowl, however, FoxSports rejected the commercial saying it contained 'religious doctrine'. Actually, the commercial only mentions the text John 3:16 and then encourages people to 'look it up'. You can view the proposed commercial for yourself at the Fixed-Point website.
