What is the worth of one soul? Can you be so sure it won't be effective to reach that ONE soul?

I think your post characterizes the entire mentality of reputation above all things, including souls.
Well, I really wasn't thinking about reputation. But you may have a point.

What I am giving here is an estimation that it won't be effective. All we're going to get, when we're on the air, are a bunch of baptists and charismatics yelling at the TV about grace, trinity, and pharisees. The lost aren't going to tune in. The ones that do are going to assume we're just like all the rest.

The money and effort is better spent on other venues of outreach.

It's also going to introduce some funny quirks, such as pastors admonishing their saints to not believe everything they see on TV, except on channel 9 between 10 and noon. Don't let television influence your life, unless it's my program. I think it's funny already!
