TBN
 

Watching a "Behind The Scenes" program in Russia, I can't help but be touched by some of the testimonies from other countries, Muslim countries, where people are being reached. I'm not a huge fan of TBN, but I can't criticize it either.

Anybody else have thoughts?

If God used a donkey to talk to Balaam....

Seriously, I don't have any confidence in the Crouches, or a lot of people on TBN, or in religious broadcasting in general. It attracts people with egos who want to exalt the flesh. In spite of that, sometimes Christ is preached in the midst of all the self-promotion, and even if the motives aren't pure, the Word produces fruit.

Because God's WORD IS ANOINTED. This is why a preacher involved in adultery can stand behind a pulpit and preach the salvation message, and souls will be saved- not because the minister is okay, but because God will not go back on His Word... :nod

I agree with not4saken... only I dont think she has been strong enough in her repudiation of these tvchristians.

Widespread corruption. Plentiful false doctrine. Some people mat start their walk there. I dont see how they could go forward staying among them. Yet they are just one of many, many similar groups.

Not really into the "pentecostal-tacki" spectacle that is TBN but I would tune in to see Irvin Baxter or TFT. Whats up with the pink hair any way?

Re: TBN
 

I only tune in if I know a certain singer will be on. The pink hair is like a Dolly Parton wannabe.

Re: TBN
 

It's no longer on our cable tv line up or on the " antenna network only" either.

I think it started with good intentions but it has deteriorated. Money and power win out every time!

As was stated, God will honor His Word and FAITH!

Re: TBN
 

I find it hard to believe that without TBN there'd be no move of God in foreign countries.

I use to let my nephews watch the kids shows on TBN that came on on Saturday when they were young, other then that TBN is worthless to me.

Re: TBN
 

It has been a few years since I have been able to bring myself to watch anything on TBN. However I do enjoy documentary type programs on Christian churches in countries that are inhospitable to them.

I remember back in the mid 90's ABC's Nightline actually did a program on the underground Christian churches in China. This was before China loosened up and discovered captialism in it's "Enterprise Zones".

It honestly was as if a Christian org. had paid for a documentary. The footage and story was amazing. It showed people traveling a long distance for a Bible conference out in the country and how they were sleeping and hiding in a secret crawl space of a country farm home.

Not surprised with ANY of this... :nod

Re: TBN
 

Matt is running TBN with dad. The other son Paul Jr left.

Re: TBN
 

Not true.

Re: TBN
 

Re: TBN
 

Matt sold his movie studio to run TBN. His brother left the network. The Paul and Jan are still married.

Re: TBN
 

You really shouldn't be talking about this.

Re: TBN
 

Why not?

I think Renda is being facetious.

Wait, are we talking TBN or Orange County Choppers here? drama.

Re: TBN
 

So NOT a TBN fan. I just can't bring myself to watch it.

Re: TBN
 

The difference between my comments and the gossip about Memphis mayhem is everything I said followed Biblical principle whoelsome and not encouraging. Even the intellectually challenged would know the difference. Put that in your joint and smoke it.

Re: TBN
 

Renda, do you smoke joints? ;)

I know ... I know....seems kind of quirky asking her that question. Don't want rumors to start so why not ask her point blank? :heeheehee

Re: TBN

Re: TBN
 

LOL

Re: TBN
 

Son, you showed me how 'intellectually challenged' YOU were from your first post. Either go back to school and learn to spel, buy a dictionary, or use a Spellcheck program for goodness sake! I'm embarrassed for ya, bro...AND offended by your nekkidness- can I post a pic of myself half dressed?? I think NOT. Only people that have HOLY HEARTS can be nekkid- not us honest, transparent fok.... (yes, I know I mispeld sum wurds. I wantd to make shur sum peepul kud reed it)

:blah

Re: TBN
 

Believe me, there are several ministries I don't care for on TBN. But watching the behind the scenes program in Russia, reading letters from Muslim countries from new converts, touched me. Their network is is vast and being aired all over the world into countries that are hostile to Christianity. I think some of the personalities are quirky and not really very good in front of a camera. However I enjoy Jakes, Franklin, Meyer, Stanley and some of their other lesser known programs. I don't watch often but since the new year I've been watching more Christian tv and listening to more Christian radio. It's a far cry better than most stuff on tv and radio.

Last year late one Friday night I saw Michael W. Smith on one of their PTL programs and it was some interview, mostly a worship concert. I laid in my bed and wept. It was powerful. W is the real deal.
