Beyond Today Interviewed on Canadian Television

Canada’s largest provider of prime time Christian programming, Grace TV, interviewed Mr. McNeely and Mr. Myers in their St. Catharines, Ontario, Canada, television studio. Gary Petty, our third Beyond Todaypresenter, was not there for this particular interview.

St. Catharines is a short 30-minute drive from Niagara Falls, New York. Our presenters flew into Buffalo, New York, and stopped to view the famous Niagara Falls on their way to the studio.

In St. Catharines, Mr. McNeely and Mr. Myers were guests on Grace TV’s “Encounter with Peter Youngren.” Mr. Youngren was out of town that day, and so Grace TV’s Steve McLaughlin hosted the hour-long program. It is now available online for you to view for several months on the Grace TV website at http://tinyurl.com/ucg-gracetv.

Topics included the purpose of the Beyond Todayprogram, the gospel of the Kingdom of God, Bible prophecy, the news, upcoming U.S. elections, the flailing economy, God and finances and much more. Mr. McNeely and Mr. Myers take up most of the last half hour of the show.

Beyond Today has been on nationwide Canadian television for a number of years. Grace TV used to be called the Christian Channel. In 2009 it changed names to Grace TV. You can see the times and channels we air in eight Canadian provinces and territories on our Beyond Today website station listing at www.ucg.org/beyond-today/channels. The Canadian UCG office has been very pleased with viewer response from Beyond Today on Grace TV. Our Sunday airtimes are very favorable, too.

Grace TV is Canada’s largest 24/7 total Christian television provider. It was launched in 2005 as Canada’s first 24/7 national digital television network. It reaches more than 60 percent of Canadian households. It is also expanding internationally and hopes to also include the U.S. soon. It is able to air up to 65 percent foreign content, while other Canadian religious channels are restricted to 35 percent. This has been a great benefit because our Beyond Today program is obviously U.S.-produced.

Please pray for the ongoing success of our effort to preach the good news of God’s Kingdom in the television medium. We have been very pleased with our nationwide response in both Canada and the U.S.—particularly from our 8:30 a.m. EST Sunday morning airtime on WGN America.But, without God’s blessing it will come to little. Please continue to pray for His guidance in all that we do in His Church.

    As I am watching this interview, I was thinking about HWA's opening statement, some years back. He said, "Suppose Jesus Christ appeared today just as He did 1,955 years ago, in the human flesh, and went on television today, worldwide, would you believe Him? You may think you would. But you wouldn't in all probability." He went on to say, "you'd be astonished at His gospel even as they were 1955 years ago"(Luke 4:32).
    The moderator heard a gospel that SO DIFFERENT from what he has heard.
