Electronic Evangelism Versus the Old

Stars appear to fall, and some religious TV superstars assuredly do. The disclosures of the last year have been lurid enough, and the press has often called those men Fundamentalists, thereby lumping them with us. Two years ago the top six of them grossed about three quarters of a billion dollars. This year the receipts will probably be far less than that. The damage to the Gospel cannot be measured in money, but it appears to be serious. The decline of TV evangelism may not be all bad, however.
