Make me a Christian
Posted on August 21st, 2008, in the evening
Channel 4 is running a series called 'Make me a Christian'. They've taken a group of non-believers and matched them up with four pastors to 'live like Christians' for three weeks.
It's fascinating stuff. Despite the oddball premiss and gently incredulous editorial the pastors seem sympathetic and fairly convincing. The glimpses into the characters' lives are occasionally genuinely moving.
Top quote so far:
"If the Christian life involves pick-up-sticks... I'm not sure I'm going to last the duration"
The last episode is Aug 24. Catch up with the first two at Channel4.com.
