What's Wrong With Christian Media?
WHAT'S WRONG (& right) WITH CHRISTIAN MEDIA?
This question was posed by Mal Fletcher in a somewhat controversial speech to the Christian Broadcasting Council (UK) last week.
You can hear the speech, and read the full transcript, right here on this site.
'Why do we claim that we want to speak to unbelievers when the fund-raising techniques we use drive unbelievers away?'
'Why do we hire salesman-like fund-raising specialists who often distort scripture to bring in the cash?'
These are among the sharp questions Mal asks his audience of Christian producers and broadcasters from across the UK.
There's a lot to inspire, as well as challenge!
Olave Snelling, chairperson for the CBC, said in a letter to Mal: 'What you had to say was, as ever, so timely, measured, important for the Body of Christ and spoken with all the integrity and power of the Holy Spirit behind it. You carry such authority in the Lord and speak such absolute "sense"...'
So don't miss it.

Only a few days after learning of Next Wave I typed in 'Germany' in the search field. Less than a week later my puppet show is being considered for a part of [the ProChrist event]. Yes, you are effecting things you are very unaware of.

Just wanted to let you know that what you are doing is affecting and impacting lives beyond what you see. It is helping to keep us sharp as a church.
