Interesting news story from Ekklesia saying that the BBC are to broadcast a new prime time series, The Passion, about the days before Jesus' crucifixion which it is suggested will attract audiences of ten million.
The series, which follows several other major programmes exploring the Christian faith, as well as regular 'God slots' on television and radio comes as some Christians continue to complain that Christianity is being sidelined in mainstream programming, or preference is given to other religions.
A multi-denominational group convened by the Churches’ Media Council has also launched a website to provide resources and information about the series. The group is encouraging the Christian community to seize this “golden opportunity to contribute to a contemporary public discussion about Jesus.”
