THE BIBLE AND THE TV GUIDE On the table side by side, The Holy Bible and the TV Guide.One is well-worn but cherished with pride, Not the Bible, but the TV Guide. One is used daily to help folks decide. No, it isn't the Bible; it's the TV Guide. As pages are turned, what shall they see? Or what does it matter? Turn on the TV! Then confusion reigns and they can't all agree On what they shall watch on the old TV. So they open the book in which they confide, No, not the Bible....It's the TV Guide. The Word of God is seldom read, Ere maybe a verse as they fall into bed. Exhausted and sleepy and tired as can be, Not from reading the Bible, but from watching TV. Then back to the table side by side Is the Holy Bible and the TV Guide. No time for prayer, No time for the Word.The plan of salvation is seldom heard. Forgiveness of sin so full and free Is found in the Bible, not on the TV. Author unknown

I think the Bible and the TV Guide are equally useful. Why would I look at the Bible when I want to know when Jerry Springer is on...will the Bible tell me when Jerry Springer is on?
Also, television has a wealth of biblical information...The History Channel, PBS, etc. have many wonderful documentaries on the Bible and it's teachings.
