It'd be interesting for you to open your show with the song Bishop S.C. Johnson opened his services with on radio many years ago. "One way to God...baptize in Jesus name".

If you disagree with TV ministry, I respect your views...
Our services will also be Itunes video podcasts (but not for a few weeks). I'll post the links here when we do.
Have a wonderful week!

P.S. "Shara (my wife) has a show on Tuesday nights @ 8:30pm called "The Music of Pentecost". (The first broadcast was this week). She features only Apostolic Pentecostals singers and musicians.
I wonder if we can pull in any of the Texas or even the Louisiana stations. I really would like to be able to watch. Our local stations broadcast mostly other denominations.

I'm not sure who wrote the song, but I have to agree it was a great (even though it was theologically in error) song. Catchy tune. Good organ and the choir could sing it well.
As far as I'm aware, Bishop Johnson died many years ago. I'm not sure if there's still a church at 22nd and Bambridge Streets, Philadelphia, PA or not.
Trying to keep my bathroom breaks shorter these days, in that extra time I could convert someone to heaven.
What are we hoping to communicate on these broadcasts? Will it be Christ-centered? Will people have an opportunity to follow-up with this exposure with their questions to someone locally?
Mass broadcasting has its place I'm sure. But nothing takes the place of grassroots, authentic, organic, relationship-based, love-exemplifying Gospel-centered lives.
I was actually not arguing with anybody. I was commenting on the brother spreading the gospel.
And for the record, I'm not sure that anyone here is talking about mass broadcasting at the expense of Gospel-centered lives and relationships. If they are then I would argue about that....without the eye-rolling of course.

Most unchurched people today view religion on TV with major skepticism. Barna and others have proven this with polls taken over and over again. Of course, just talking to non-churched people would show this attitude. We constantly have to clarify that we aren't the "TV evangelist" type.
The broadcast is going into places where there is no faith community to continue/begin the discipleship?
Another concern with TV broadcasts (which I didn't know were included in the resolution) is that the money spent could be better spent investing into the local communities, people with needs in the Church, focusing on the local church or world missions. Is TV advertising the best return on the buck? The wisest investment?
There, of course, is a great temptation for self-promotion in TV as well.
But... I'm sure there are some success stories. For each his own, but I think these things should be considered when deciding.
I agree with you generally, however the UPC really has an opportunity here to set themselves apart from the "Cotton-candy colored hair" and the "Bodies Hit da Floor!" crowd. A lot of other television media might even help to promote it.
Here is a a group that has has eschewed the "evils" of telebision since before the days of Uncle Milty. And now, they are venturing out across the airwaves, the cables and the "tubes" that connect the Internet with something... different!
That idea is appealing right there. Of course, they'd have to truly be "something different" and ... "RELEVANT" to make it work.
