Without a tele-VISION, people perish
Unfortunately, our society has taught most to build walls around themselves to keep others out. Fear is gripping many people and causing them to circle their wagons. People have fewer relationships and many are even afraid to venture out.
TV is NOT the end all/be all communication tool by any stretch. However, some people need to hear & see the gospel message on the blue hue screen. For some of these people, it will be the only avenue into their world, home and heart. Jesus was concerned about 1 soul being lost.
It would be great if we could get to them personally, but many of them are in gated communities and buildings with security entrances.
I'm not saying that we use the majority of our resources on TV.
However, if we are really concerned about the lost, we won't forget these "wagon people" either.

Yep, just as the invention of radio did; just as the internet has . . .
and don't forget what Rock 'n Roll has done!
If only Isaac Newton, Thomas Edison, Alexander Graham Bell and others in the electronics and communications field had known that their evil inventions would cause many to perish and be lost!
