CHRISTIAN TV SHOWS: This is the Life and Main Street Living are broadcast on our local affiliates on Sunday mornings.  “This is the Life” features remastered episodes of the popular series that was very popular in the 70’s and 80’s. Main Street Living is a Lutheran worship service that features a different area Pastor each week. It features many aspects of worship; with an Invocation, confession and absolution, The Apostles Creed, the week’s Scripture readings, and a sermon. Hymns are sung by area church choir members. It’s a wonderful evangelistic ministry that shares the saving grace of our Lord Jesus Christ with the unchurched and shut-in.  It is also great to utilize on Sundays you are unable to attend worship online at www.mainstreetliving.com
