I've often wondered why the Episcopal Church did not have a cable show of fine preachers from around the country, or of the chanting of the Daily Office from one of our monasteries, or of a festival Holy Eucharist from one of our parishes.
I do enjoy the church services that are on the Web when I cannot get to church, though.
Congratulations on keeping up your parish's tradition of media evangelism.
Good stuff, you 21st century pamphleteer, you! Also, nice work with the Gorillaz. We have to show the masses that even as priests we can have good tastes in music!
What a great history. Great to hear you get to carry on the legacy. Keep up the good work. Oh and..... So when are we going to see you on broadcast tv? lol
When I was a kid in the 60s, my (large, well healed) Episcopal church home was on TV locally. Likewise the Methodist church down the street.
When it came time to upgrade to color equipment in the mid 60s, my church passed on the opportunity to participate due to increased production costs, and the broadcast ended. The Methodist church ponied up and eventually went on to broadcast nationally.
I don't get it. Unless the point is that the religion is dying out and people are becoming more rational.

You'd be surprised to know that religion ain't dying out, but it is changing.

BTW, someone told me that becoming an Episcopal priest is a popular option with ex-Catholic women and married men.
Does you diocese have too many priests and not enough lay members?

no more than becoming a catholic priest is a popular option with pedophiles and nazis I guess.

You can probably guess which one grew bigger. :)
