TV PROGRAMMING BY IRAQIS

ARAB VISION TO LAUNCH
TV PROGRAMMING PRODUCED BY IRAQIS


Despite increasing violence toward Christians in Iraq, Arab Vision is drawing up plans to produce Iraqi Christian TV programs by early next year.

These programs are to be made by Iraqi Christians in their own particular dialect while focusing on sharing the gospel message with their nation and encouraging Christians who deal with extreme dangers.

The international director of Arab Vision said,
“Iraq has had enough of bombs and wars. For many Iraqis, Islam has brought mostly violence and war, and more than ever before, they are turning to Christ. Now is the time to spread the gospel through TV in that land.”
Although Arab Vision’s programs already generate good response in Iraq, experience shows that locally made programs attract more viewers.

Arab Vision will begin production with Iraqis living in neighboring countries with hopes to eventually move production work into Iraq itself.

Despite the security risks, a number of Iraqi Christians are ready to face those challenges, indicating the dangers posed by producing TV programs aren’t much greater than what is already present just for being a Christian.
