Monitor programming featured daily religious article

I am writing in response to Jim Franklin's Dec. 27 article about the Christian Science Church and Monitor Television. Franklin states that "church members even criticized the project as too secular because it lacked an element such as the daily religious article that buttressed the newspaper, The Christian Science Monitor." That statement does not present a true picture because the religious article was broadcast as part of the Monitor Channel.

I know because I was the producer of the television program that featured the reading of the same religious article that appeared in the print version of the Monitor.

Since the Monitor is only published on weekdays, I also produced Bible verse programs for Saturday and Sunday. The intent of these programs was to provide an inspiring start to the broadcast day and to share some of the great truths of the Bible.

The religious articles continue to be broadcast as part of the daily shortwave programming of the world service of The Christian Science Monitor and are a very popular feature with listeners.
