The Electronic Church
One third of all Americans now proclaim themselves ' Born Again ' Christians. Such is the growing importance of the movement, that all three Presidential carididates claim to have seen the light. America is, in fact, undergoing a religious revival almost as dramatic as the Islamic revolution.
The message in the United States may be Old Testament gospel, but the medium is very much of the electronic age. One new evangelical radio station opens every week; a new television station every month.
David Henshaw reports from America's sophisticated West Coast, where last week a 22-acre Shopping Centre for Jesus Christ opened for the salvation of souls.
