sion" audience surveys show
that getting people to tune in a
religious broadcast is almost as
difficult as getting them to at
tend church.
Equally discouraging to
chursymen is evidence that re
ligious broadcasts are relatively
ineffective in winning converts,
even among those who listen to
them regularly. One survey of
3.599 families, sponsored by the
National Council -Q Churches,
turned up only one person who
said he was converted through
the direct influence of a tele
vision program.
Officials of major denomina
tions are now taking a hard sec
ond look at the whole field, of
religious broadcasting, in an ef
fort to find out where the trou
ble iies.
I Can Stand Improvement
The first conclusion they have
reajhed is that the quality of
most religious programs can
stand a great deal of improve
ment. "There has been a tendency
to substitute pious intentions for
professional skill in producing
religious broadcasts," said one
official. "Churches cannot ex
pect . to hold their own in the
highly competitive struggle for
television audiences simply by
labelling a broadcast religious
and asking people to watch it
out of a sense of duty."
Dr. Ralph W. Sockman, New
York Methodist minister whose
"National Radio Pulpit" sermons
are broadcast over 100 NBC
stations each Sunday morning,
how to use
tions media,

He has been curate at SP

Harvest Day Festival
Set by C. Pt. Church
Central Point A special
harvest day festival is planned
for the last' Sunday in August
for the Central Point Church of
Christ.
A Bible school picnic will be
held in the city park after the
morning service that day. These
are special features planned in
connection with the second half
of the national Band Wagon con
test for Bible school promotion.
The church Bible school is now
40 per cent increased over Aug

Crisman Family
Returns From Visit
The Rev. Clynton Cftsman
and family of Medford Friends
Church have returned after a
two week vacation visiting rel
atives and friends in the Port
land area.
Last Sunday, about 10 couples
from the young marrieds Sun
day school class joined in an
annual picnic at Casey park.
The Sunday school is looking
forward to Saturday, Aug. 10,
when the all-Sunday school pic
nic is planned. q
The Rev. William C. Piper
will continuO his series of ser
"mons on the life of Job at the
First Christian church Sunday
morning. The topic will be '"gie
Art of Slander." At thO evening
service, Mr. Piper will talk on
"Sowing and Reaping."
William C. Piper

much more difficult than preach
ing from a pulpit to a congrega
tion. "You have to use colorful
words, words that the listener
can "see" in his mind," he said
in an interview. "You must av
oid long abstract discussions and
put in frequent light touches.
But no matter how hard you
try to make the sermon interest
ing, 15 minutes is about as long
as you can hold an invisible
audience."
Simply putting a regular
church service on the air the
the type of program which takes
up a large proportion of all
broadcast time allocated to re
ligion is, in Sockman's opin
ion, a largely futile form of
evangelism. Such a broadcast,
he feels, may be welcomed by
shut-ins who ftould like to at
tend church in person if they
could, but it is not likely to woo
many potential converts away
from the Sunday papers.
In an effort to develop a
different kind of religious
broadcast that will appeal to
the millions who never attend
church, the Broadcasting and
Film Commission of the Nation
al Council of Churches has been
experimenting with several
types of programs. It has pro
duced dramatic shows with un
derlying spiritual themes; panel
programs in which newspaper
men interview churiO officials
of controversial subjects; and
"man to man" talks by articu
late clergymen on specific prob
lems of everyday living.
. Dr. S. Franklin Mack, execu
tive head ofe the commission,
believes that an indirect ap
proach such as a dramatic
show which heightens an aware
ness of ultimate values in life
may be far more effe&Uve in
'securing a religious response
among the unchurched thjn an
explitcitlv religious broadcast,
such as a sermon.
"For the non-Christian, or the
careless, indifferent ChristisCJ
he said, "our aim should be to
stay awake, to disturtPcomplac
ency, toreat tensiSns that can
be resolved only by moving
toward Christ and the church."
