I have acccess to free advertising with our local community access station. I used them to promote our children's crusade. They aired our commercial at least six times a day. They gave me unlimited time for the commercial. A week later I hit the streets. I mentioned the ad and people said they seen it. We had over 100 first time guests that Saturday and Sunday. So far 3 people got the Holy Ghost a mom, a teenager, and a boy... All in the same family. Point being. Tv advertising can be effective and adds credibility to your one on one witness. When they see you on tv and meet you in person and you are just as real to them in person as you are on tv, they are going to want what you have.
Even though it was said that people will stop face to face evangelism if television, not one shred of evidence will support that claim. The West Coast Prophet and the Indiana/Illinois Apostle can stop spreading that rhetoric.

Hardly ANYONE watches anything on cable public access regardless of the program, but occasionally the right people flips to it at the right time in their lives.
