CHURCH BROADCASTS
Sir-On what authority does Mr. Philpot state that the majority of listeners do not find the services convincing? Has he taken a referendum? We are told "not to forsake the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of some is." However, some. of us living in isolated places, and others confined to house or hospital through sickness can seldom obey that literally, much as we Would like to do so, but when ‘listening. to an ordinary church service by means of radio we can feel that we are actually taking part in spirit, and many ministers recognise this, and include us as their unseen congregation (which is of course a gathering of people). If we know that only minister and choir are present in the studio we are listeners only, not par-
ticipants.
