Kent to T.V. Debate: Game On!

Posted by: David Bunch

Check out 90&9 Executive Editor Kent Curry's cover article on the great television debate. (remember we are still publishing at the dot com site). In this thesis Kent redefines the terms of the debate in an attempt to bring clarity and insight into what has become an all out war of words.

The battle for position in the UPC’s Great TV Debate has begun in earnest. After last year’s resolution to allow advertising on television was delayed for one year, with the promise of in-depth research being released in a future issue of The Forward, the UPC’s ministerial magazine, the issue died down. That is no longer the case.

Whether you’re a minister or not, this issue directly affects you—both in the future direction of your individual church and the public perception of your beliefs. However, there has to be room for a more nuanced debate than the mostly “all or nothing” stands currently being proclaimed.
