700 Club Interactive - Best Television Teaching Program - NRB 2014 Submission

While the production values of 700 Club Interactive rivals many Hollywood films, the message they proclaim is completely different. While Hollywood glorifies sex, drugs, and violence, 700 Club Interactive focuses on truth, discipleship, and love. 2 Timothy says that all scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for teaching. 700 Club Interactive believes this to be true, and as such, utilizes the latest in technology to teach the Bible in a brand new way. When viewers have a question about an issue, 700 Club Interactive delivers a Biblical response while utilizing professional-quality stories to help explain the topic. On a recent show, for example, one viewer asked how God can speak to us in dreams. 700 Club Interactive played the story of a former Muslim who met Jesus in a dream, and afterwards, host Gordon Robertson shared what the Bible said about that topic. The YouTube link contained with this submission demonstrates how 700 Club Interactive is set apart from other television teaching programs. It starts with the testimony of award-winning singer Jamie Grace, an immensely-talented musician who also struggled with Tourette’s syndrome. She went through a spell where she doubted God, until ultimately came to the realization that God is present at all times. Most shows would return to the studio and have the hosts offer a short commentary; 700 Club Interactive used that as a springboard for a teaching about the importance of worship. Jamie Grace cited a verse; Gordon went into the history of that verse and how it applied to our lives today.
