Not my usual viewing preference, but now and then I pause to see what is going on at the newest TV channel in town, 3ABN, Three Angels Broadcasting Network, a 7th Day Adventist outfit with HQ in that hub of civilization, Grants Pass, Oregon. 3ABN, through hook up with the national Adventist TV system , does reach a large national audience even if few major markets. Not my type, but the woman who hosts a special show is perfect for the production. She exudes warmth, cheerfulness, etc And it is difficult, indeed, not to notice her smile, which is rather incredible given the fact that she seems to have Olympic quality gymnastic lips which , quite nicely, move all over the place as she speaks. Watching her mouth is a major attraction, to be candid. The show is called " Tiny Tots for Jesus." The hostess sits amidst a small number of pre-school little tykes and tells them simple stories about Jesus. Very charming. No idea what anyone might do with this vital information, or even if anyone here receives 3ABN on their TVs, but FYI. Absolutely non-pretentious, and, I think, very effective. Maybe least of all for the kids, who, after all, are much more interested in bugs or toys or dolls than anything else, but for parents who may watch and not only see a show that is good for their at-home kinds, but that, completely innocently I think, reaches mom or dad with a message that has deep value, expressed with utter simplicity.
