Stephen,

You are exactly right! You guys will never know the complete impact you had on the viewers.

It was a God thing.

I am sorry there are some strong opinions by the non-viewers of the show, but that is not really what this thread is about.

Daily we are getting feedback from viewers by e-mail, phone, letters, even flowers from the local community, and face to face personal contact with hundreds in our realm of influence. 99% of the feedback is positive, and we are sharing our faith.

Two people in our assembly have stated they were compelled to come back to church because they saw the show. Both had been absent in recent weeks.

Thanks to the show, today my wife had a personal bible study (and more to come) in our home.

Also, today I had a Highway Patrolman (whom I don't know) come up to me in a restaurant and thank me for being a witness and standing strong for my faith on the show.

Also, today I had personal discussions about God with four other people - two were strangers.
OK folks, get off of your hobby horses..here ya go, results!!! Congrats on what GOD is doing through your lives, be blessed, encouraged in the Lord, and much success on your journey! If I don't ever get to meet ya down here, we'll high five in heaven!

So a seven year old is watching cartoons, changes channels and sees the Hoover/Meeks families on TV.

He says "Mom, are these the people that live close to uncle's house?"

Mom says "yes!" and watches the show.

After the show she writes Kristin a letter, saying she wants more of God, "Can you help me?"

Kristin begins prayer and bible study with her twice weekly.

Today "Mom" was water baptised and recieved the baptism of the Holy Spirit!

Well, this just goes to show that many sincere believers are ready for prime time even if screaming preachers are not!(j/k) How did the early church propagate? It was house to house, literally sheep begetting sheep.
