Kevin Newman, anchor of Global TV’s national newscast, saw signs about the Alpha course in his neighbourhood and got intrigued about what is happening in non-traditional, evangelical Canadian churches. He is hosting a special on Monday May 25 at 10 pm et/pt called Hip 2B Holy. This blog deals with issues about Christian publishing in Canada in particular, and of course what we’re writing and publishing and selling is closely related to what’s going on in churches, so we hope that this TV special will make some interesting — and hopefully insightful — reporting from the mainstream media’s perspective.
Here is a preview about the program with Lorna Dueck of Listen Up, interviewing Kevin Newman and the director Karen Pinker about Hip 2B Holy.
100 Huntley Street also ran a preview of this show, with a feature produced by Magadalene John.
