Every Day is a Super Bowl Sunday Here
Just in case you did not know, tonight is the Super Bowl. Who’s cheering for the Rams? Is anyone cheering for the Bengals? How many of you will watch but only for the ads? Here are some interesting facts:
- Last year Americans spent $13.9 billion on the Super Bowl, mostly on food.
- The average spend per household was $74.55.1.
- $6.5 million is the price tag for a 30-second ad this year an increase of $1 million from last year.2.
- 100 million viewers typically watch a Super Bowl.
With numbers like that, it is easy to see that the Super Bowl has become an American tradition that even non-football fans enjoy.
The irony is that ten years from now only a few will remember who won the game!
Billions of dollars spent on one game that in the end will not change anything about the course of history or make the world a better place. Tonight’s game will soon be over, but the troubles of the world continue.
We exist, State Your Vision Statement! We don’t focus on one event, one game, or one night. For us, every day is a Super Bowl Sunday here. We see lives impacted for eternity each week here.
That is one reason we never apologize for taking up an offering to accomplish all we do. We don’t plead or beg you to give, we simply tell you what your gift does. We don’t use guilt because we want you to give freely and willingly. We take up an offering as an act of worship for a God who gives us so much.
