Successful Christian Television
by Phil Cooke
I don’t know whether I should talk more about Phil or his book. Phil and I are chums from college days, and there are so-o-o-o many interesting stories I could tell.
But, my purpose here is a brief review of his new book, Successful Christian Television. In one word this book is – resource. In two words – great resource.
If you are considering or are already involved in television at your church or ministry – you need to get this book and read it. If you had to pay $500 or more for the information in this book, your ROI would make Warren Buffett jealous. But like so many good books, this one is under priced.
Phil covers the very basics of production, equipment, staffing, formats, and media. He reveals where the mines are buried. He talks about sensitive personnel issues.
Here are some of the areas covered –
· Choosing a Format
· Producers and Directors
· Television Equipment
· Reaching an Audience
· Financing Your Television Outreach
· Radio
· The Internet
The appendices alone are worth the price of this book.
You just need to buy the dad-gummed book.
