Description

The QnA programs are designed for either an adult or youth listening audience. Radio, Social media platforms and TV will be the primary delivery platforms. These programs are topical in nature and are stand-alone.

Target Group

Here is a thumbnail sketch of our listeners. They are from Asia, the Middle East, Africa, Eastern Europe, and South America. The majority are not Christians (we use the term "follower of Jesus"). They do not own a Bible. They know very, very little - if anything - about the Bible. They know nothing of the church. The majority of the listeners may be Muslim, Buddhist, or nothing. However, these persons are concerned about their lives, and our goal is to find the means and ways for them to listen to programs that can be broadcast on radio or shared on digital media platforms. We expect we will find some listeners to be sincere. They want to know more about the subject. This may also server as a good resource for your follow-up teams and Social Media platforms.

Our focus is telling them about Jesus in a practical and simple way and in a manner which a listener can personally respond.

The questions are those of persons with a very limited knowledge of the Bible or Jesus. No question is off limits. We posed some questions that are hostile or even antagonistic.
