NASHVILLE, April 7, 2011 /Christian Newswire/ -- Christian television channel NRB Network has announced the debut of a new weekly program from apologist, speaker and author, Dr. Alex McFarland. Sound Rēzn mixes apologetics, cultural engagement, current news, politics, and theology in a fast- moving blend of interesting and informative television. The half-hour series will air each Monday at 7:30 pm ET beginning April 11th on DIRECTV channel 378, Sky Angel channel 126 and via online streaming at www.nrbnetwork.tv.
Like McFarland's highly-acclaimed radio show of the same name, the Sound Rēzn TV show seeks to be "reasoned, respectful and relevant." Viewers can expect intelligent dialogue and analyses from leading thinkers that will help them better understand God's Word and its application to important topics of the day.
McFarland, in a recent statement, expressed enthusiasm about the show's launch and its potential to help Christians "deepen their knowledge of apologetics" and "articulate why they believe what they believe."
Alex McFarland is widely regarded as an authority on religion and culture having spoken in more than 1,300 U.S. churches, on over 100 college campuses and appearing on major networks including FOX News, CBS and C-SPAN. He formerly served as the President of Southern Evangelical Seminary and is the author of over 150 published articles and numerous books including two soon-to-be published titles: 10 Questions Every Christian Must Answer (Broadman and Holman) and Inside the Mind of the Skeptic (Regency Publishing).
"We are so excited to have Dr. McFarland on our channel," said NRB Network President and CEO Troy A. Miller. "The scriptures tell us that as believers we should always be ready to give an answer for the hope in us. Sound Rēzn will equip viewers to better articulate their faith with a format that is thought-provoking and engaging."
Viewers can tune in to Sound Rēzn on Mondays at 7:30 pm ET beginning April 11th on NRB Network which is seen on DIRECTV channel 378, Sky Angel channel 126 and via online streaming at www.nrbnetwork.tv.
