I'm posting this message here for those who didn't read it in the Fellowship of Christian Magicians forum.

Basically, the producer of a show called The American Bible Society Presents approached me months ago wanting to do a feature on "Christian Magicians". We arranged for him to meet us at The Magic Castle and for 2 hours he filmed our performances and interviewed a few.

The show's producer just called me to say the air date was moved forward and it's going to air THIS weekend.

You will need to check your cable listings to find the show. The program is called The American Bible Society Presents (ABS Presents). The episode is about the Fellowship of Christian Magicians and was taped at The Magic Castle.

Go to the ABS Presents website here and find the channel in your area that it will air on. Then check with your cable provider to see if they carry that channel and at what time it airs in your area.
http://www.abspresents.com/abspresents/stations

After the show airs on TV, you can view the show directly on their website at http://www.abspresents.com

For Him,

Joe

Looks like it's not being moved up a week after all. The website shows the air date of April 8th. And so we wait another week.....

Thank you all. They filmed 2 hours straight of gospel magic and edited it down to 5 min 50 seconds. Isn't that just like TV... But I think the producer did a really great job with the show and the Fellowship of Christian Magicians got some great publicity out of it.

Here's where you can find the link: http://www.abspresents.com/abspresents/episodes
Just click on Episode 26.

Thank you all for your support and encouraging words.

This was great, and I enjoyed seeing the episode. Reminded me that the Smother Brother's of Christian Magic were mentioned in one of the recent magic magazines.

Any more information on them? I could go back and find out their names.

You are probably thinking of Oz and Wilde, Gene Ozwald and Kif Anderson.... here's their website: http://www.ozandwilde.com

They performed at last year's FCM conference and I think they were invited back to perform at this year's conference too.

I thought it was a well done piece too, and great followup on it in Magic Magazine...a win win for Gospel magic.
