For many persons, faith is lived out daily in a myriad of services and activities that glorify God and benefit God’s people.
The stories of many such faithful persons will be told beginning Sunday, January 8, on ABC-TV in an hour-long special, Every Day is Sunday! Living Out Our Faith Together.
The special, hosted by New York’s Marble Collegiate Church, produced by Bob Marty and Christina Morano for MarbleVision, the media ministry of Marble Collegiate Church, and presented by the National Council of Churches USA through the Interfaith Broadcasting Commission, will feature persons who practice their faith and give of their time, not just on Sunday but every day of the week.
For those who live their faith on a daily basis, whether it be through feeding the homeless, making visits to an elderly person in need of company or volunteering to help make the world a better place, the spiritual rewards are boundless.
Hosted by Marble Collegiate Church’s senior minister, Dr. Michael B. Brown, the one-hour documentary profiles four examples: God’s Love We Deliver, an organization that feeds the chronically ill and is celebrating its 25th anniversary, the Salvation Army, a worldwide fixture known for helping those in need since 1865, the Issacs Center, a New York City based senior center that brings joy to the elderly and Marble’s Interfaith Trialogue Service that brings together clergy members of different faith groups to focus on their differences and commonalities.
The connecting threads between all four examples featured in the special are the importance of living your faith to the fullest, no matter what your religious affiliation and helping others as a result.
The producers hope the special will inspire viewers to take Dr. Brown’s timely advice: “Before the day is over, do at least one thing unexpected for someone from whom you expect no repayment.”
