    I love this commercial, it inspires me to think What if the people around me also wanted to change the world? They do! That's a great feeling. If you like the ad pass it on to friends and family.

    What if there was a small corner of the world where I could be loved and accepted as I am? There is!
    If we keep sharing the message at the heart of the language of God, that corner will not be so small, but will encompass the whole world. Watch and share!

  • Great new ad! I have reposted it to my blog, with my reflections on how it moved me.

    I've been watching this video over and over again all morning. The powerful message of God's love for ALL makes my heart beat faster. It makes my smile wider every time I watch it.

  • The West Coast is waking up to the "Language of God" this morning. What a beautiful message. I think of the UCC as teaching "language lessons" by immersing ourselves in God's abounding love. You are welcomed and affirmed here as a child of God.

    Powerful message - I think! I'm probably too old for this kind of advertising, but it goes by too fast for my weak brain to take in. Maybe the point is to get me to look at it several times.
  • Sunny S 2 years ago
    It was kinda fast for me, too, and I'm 35... but yeah, the world just moves faster and faster these days, and ads push the limits!

    Goodness does not have to come from a higher power, real or imagined, it can come from the goodness in people, and the inherent desire of man to do good, regardless of the influence of an invisible force.

    AMEN! thanks for this beautiful message!

    Amazing video - God is Still Speaking,,, and no words have to be uttered. Beautiful music and images.
  •  
  • Interesting, but what about all the bad things that happen in the world? I think more balance would bring more religious relevance and make it more engaging. Nice use of stills and light effects though.

    kgt, where does the "the inherent desire of man to do good" come from?

    I am so proud of my denomination and my Church. Again, why are we the only major domination to take a stand and advocate equality for EVERYONE.. and KUDO's also for when the conservative controlled media wouldn't allow us to advertise and advocate for equality via the networks, my faith partners hit a homerun and WENT VIRAL !!!!!!!!!!!!!! Way to GO UCC !!!! For those of us who listen with an open heart and a clear mind, GOD truly is speaking and the words are that of love, compassion, understanding, acceptance and peace.

    WHAT IF everyone we loved knew that they are loved by God?

    I am very proud to be a member of the United Church of Christ where everyone is welcome and everyone is loved.

    I'm not a member of the UCC anymore (or any church for that matter), but I have immense respect for the UCC. I grew up in the church, and I think it set a good foundation for me. Learning to be open, compassionate, and accepting was a lesson I never forgot and never will. I believe in those things above pretty much anything else.

    Thank god that he is so big that he loves and doesn't exclude Catholic pedophile priests!

    What if god speaks through pornography, or KKK literature, or laws against gay marriage? god does!



    (Note: the above is for satirical purposes only. Please do not take this -- or the "god is still speaking" nonsense -- too seriously, m'kay? Hey, maybe god is still speaking through my satire!)

    Great news for us God is still speaking we just have to take time from our busy lives to STOP and listen......
    LOVE the new ad.

    It's too bad that the content of this commercial does not represent the true nature of the United Church of Christ. Far too many of us are still turned away from it's doors after hoping that the UCC epitomized Christ's radical hospitality. Don't be fooled by the UCC and its hypocritical actions!
  • Sunny S 2 years ago
    What our denomination stands for vs. what our congregations look like can be different. Congregations have to boldly live the message. Radical hospitality, indeed!
  • Jim McFarland 2 years ago
    Can you expand on that, Bryan?
  •  
  • John Titus 2 years ago
    This video raises many questions. How is religion relevant? How is the Christian Church relevant to you today? God speaks in many different ways. Everyone is welcome under the giant umbrella of the Church. God's radical unconditional love is wonderful news!!!

    What if each of us were a still speaking message? God is still speaking thru you and me, as well as online!

    We are still listening,
    when we slow down
    when we leave time for quiet reflection
    when we listen for God' voice
    and to each other
    I saw God again, among the little green humming birds.

    Technical details please:

    1. FCP or Premiere (or Avid)?
    2. Music source?
    3. After Effects or Motion?

    Any notes on how it was put together would be appreciated. Nice work. Good presentation. No voiceover was refreshing.
