CHURCH BROADCASTS
Sir,-In your August number "Oliver" (Te Awamutu) says that few people listen to the Church services broadcast and wants some of them cut out. Surely this is his own opinion. I’m sure that it is not the general view. For twenty years I have been in business, and during conversation with customers have been amazed to discover how many have referred to what they heard, and how greatly they had been helped-especially when a direct earnest appeal had een made and Christ presented to meet the soul’s. great need. Should these preachers see their unseen audience-could they get a glimpse into these troubled hearts and the peace that often follows at the end of the servicethey would preach as never before. We have just returned from a trip to Germany, Holland, France, and many other countries, and for these downtrodden people no joyful news rings out now. Our Lord Jesus said: "In the world ye shall have tribulation-but in Me ye shall have peace." His peace is what we want just now, and how shall we hear without a preacher? May the day never come in our lovely country when we are deprived of this privilege of hearing the Gospel freely preached. "A MOTHER" (Whakatane).
