The God (and Prophet) Who Cried | Moses 7 | Come Follow Me 2026 | John Hilton III | Feb 2-8

Marketers are increasingly critical of "bull spend," a term used to describe advertising expenditures that yield impressive metrics but fail to deliver real results. This sentiment is echoed in discussions about the effectiveness of ad campaigns, particularly on platforms like LinkedIn, where targeted advertising can lead to higher returns on investment. The conversation highlights the importance of focusing on revenue rather than just reach, urging marketers to cut unnecessary spending that does not contribute to tangible business outcomes.

In a theological exploration, the discussion shifts to the emotional depth of biblical narratives, particularly focusing on the figure of Enoch from the Old Testament. Enoch's experiences of sorrow and his vision of a weeping God illustrate the profound connection between divine empathy and human suffering. The narrative emphasizes that God understands human grief and pain, as evidenced by Enoch's vision where God weeps for the wickedness of humanity. This portrayal challenges traditional views of a stoic deity, suggesting instead a God who is intimately involved in the struggles of His children.

The episode also reflects on the significance of the crucifixion of Jesus Christ, arguing that understanding this event is essential for grasping the depth of divine love and empathy. The discussion includes insights from surveys conducted among students, revealing varying perceptions of crucifixion imagery and its emotional impact. Ultimately, the conversation encourages listeners to embrace the complexities of faith, acknowledging both joy and sorrow as integral to the human experience and the divine relationship.
