The Pulpit Presentation of the Faith

Extract
The subject-matter covered by this title is so wide in extent that we are in danger from the outset of being lost in generalities. For this reason I propose to explore one corner only of its extensive field, by confining myself to the parochial apostolate. I think you will find that the more general principles will emerge.
Let us begin with a quotation:
‘Television is a blessing', an American Bishop said recently. ‘Spiritually radio and television are beautiful examples of the inspired wisdom of the ages. Radio is like the Old Testament … hearing of wisdom without seeing; television is like the New Testament because in it the wisdom becomes flesh and dwells among us…. We are thankful to radio and television for being the most spiritual symbols of the truth by which we are saved.'
Is that statement true or fanciful? You may have your own ideas about that. There are however one or two incontrovertible facts about this new situation.
