Chinese Hope Channel Moves Ahead with Production
Dec 23, 2009 09:40
Reaching more than one billion people in China with the gospel is becoming reality through God’s honoring of prayers and financial support by Hope Channel viewers. Plans to launch Hope Channel China in early 2010 remain on track. Through Hope Channel’s “Project Hope Chinese” initiative in Loma Linda, California, combined with recent production from studios in New Zealand, Hong Kong, Taiwan, and mainland China, more than 1000 programs are ready in inventory—thanks to God’s blessing on circumstances and the hard work of countless volunteers. Topics include health, parenting, inspirational programming, music, and a children’s series.
“Following the production of shows in March, Hope Channel was incredibly blessed with an amazing offer,” says Kandus Thorp. “One generous family provided a location for a permanent production set on the West Coast.”
Three of the new programs include “Total Health: Mind, Body, and Spirit,” produced by Dr. Andy Ng of Pacific Health Education Center and hosted by Dr. Helen Beck from Loma Linda Medical University; “Garden of Christianity,” a devotional program featuring leaders Timothy Zhao, Dr. Paul Cho, Pastor Doris Foo, and Pastor Matthew Yuen from Loma Linda and Los Angeles area Chinese churches; and a series on marriage, produced by Jenny Hung that will include couples who speak about their personal experiences in marriage and offer solutions to strengthen relationships.
“It is hard to reach through closed doors in China because of the current political climate,” says Ivy Ng, project coordinator, “but Project Hope Chinese is creating programs that will spread the gospel throughout China.”
