Beyond the Facts: Faith Sees the Deepest Truth: Reflections of a TV News AnchorJohn Bachman, Principal Anchor at WHOTV, reflects on the stories of the good, the bad, and the ugly that he brings to his viewers. He expresses those stories in poem-like vignettes and puts them in the context of the word of a compassionate God. He reminds us all that the failures and achievements of mankind are not simply fleeting images on the television screen but are real events that happen to real people— people for whom a loving God cares. In this book John turns the events of the evening news into vignettes of inspiration. |
