Christian TV Upholds Egyptians

Fady and his wife Marian, from Tanta in Egypt, introduced SAT- 7 KIDS to their two-and-a-half-year-old son, Fares when he was just 18 months old. Since then Fares has become a huge fan, switching back to SAT-7 KIDS if his parents are watching something else. The programmes ‘teach the children how to love, how to pray… During any programme when the presenters pray, he (Fares) does the same automatically,’ Marian said. As well as creating a climate of faith and hope for children, SAT-7 KIDS has a ministry to adults. Fady said that they are used to upheaval in Egypt, but watching SAT-7 KIDS has ‘been a way to run away from all the noise around us.’

Saudi Arabians Respond to Jesus | Report 21

Ever since the development of satellite television in the Middle East in the 1990s, viewers have had access to information they would never have heard otherwise. From 1996, when SAT-7 began broadcasting, its goal has been to “Make God’s love visible” – even in places where it has never been seen before. Amongst the thousands of calls SAT-7 receives, it’s always a delight to hear when this good news is reaching minds and hearts for the first time. The email we received from Shadia, in Saudi Arabia, is one such example.

Shadia told SAT-7 KIDS, “how I love you and love the songs”. But then she shared how her “sisters and I tried to become Christians”. Touchingly, she said, “We prayed, but we don’t know how Jesus can hear our prayers because we are not in Lebanon, Jordan, or Egypt”. Shadia said she and her sisters know that Jesus “loves the Christians out there”, but they were afraid that he “does not have time for us and for our prayers”. “I love Him a lot, trust and believe in Him but am sure that Jesus does not know about our prayer and love for Him because we do not have churches, nor the Scripture (in our country). I just read the Bible through the internet.”

A member of SAT-7’s Audience Relations Team responded immediately to Shadia’s message, explaining that “The nature of Jesus (means) that He can hear our prayers everywhere and at any time”. Then he went on to describe “Jesus’ endless love for her, including His great offer of becoming a daughter of God and to be sure of eternal life with Him in heaven.” After taking this step, he said Shadia could “pray any time to thank Him for His blessings on her life and to ask for  anything she needs so He can grant it to at the right time.” Knowing she was reading the New Testament online, he supported these points with verses from the Gospels, to make things clearer to her.

Satellite TV Brings Hope to Syrians | 325 | Report 24

Babel, along with her five sisters, little brother and parents, fled from northern Syria to safety in Lebanon six months ago when living conditions and the security situation in their home-town became unbearable. Amazingly, the whole family became Christians four years ago and the children have been very attached to SAT-7 KIDS programmes ever since! They began sending messages from Syria on Facebook to Marianne the presenter of the programme Yalla Nghanny Sawa (Let’s Sing Together), and when they arrived in Lebanon she invited them to appear on the show. While discussing the miracles of God in the Bible, the children were able to share God’s miracles of protection that they had experienced in Syria.”

Middle East: 9 Million See Christian TV | 322 | Reports 1 & 2

Children throughout the Middle East are hurting. There is much bloodshed and violence in the Middle East, and children are some of the most affected. Christian TV channel SAT-7 is trying to change this. Their programmes seek to give these children a hope for life, and an opportunity for a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. SAT-7 KIDS is the only Christian channel just for children across the Middle East and North Africa. With a viewership of over 9 million viewers, it is vastly popular, and spreading the Good News far and wide. God is using SAT-7 to broadcast His message of love and reconciliation throughout this strategic region.

Incredibly, in Iraq 1 in 3 children watch SAT-7 KIDS, and in Saudi Arabia 1 in 4 children watch the channel! A recently created programme – With Jesus – recognises the dangers in their society but creates a safe and fun place for them to experience childhood. So far, episodes have taught kids “How Not to Fear” and “God is My Friend”. An episode entitled “I Am Special” told children, “If you have no parents or friends, you can go to Jesus.” A unique segment draws the viewers into Bible stories. One episode features an actor playing the part of Joseph from the Bible. Joseph calls the studio on Skype from his home out in the desert. Producer Mounir Zakhary says this segment adds value to the show because “You feel you are in the moment.”

Since it launched in October, With Jesus has already found a big audience. This autumn it attracted the most views on the SAT-7 KIDS YouTube channel. The series caught the attention of an Egyptian
schoolgirl. The hosts were explaining how to be an ambassador for Christ at school. This schoolgirl was not sure how to relate to a classmate from a different background. Not long after watching the episode, she saw her classmate being bullied at school and stood up for her in front of the bullies. The two girls formed a special bond and became close friends.

With Jesus is designed for 8 to 14-year-olds but is also touching adults. One lady tells of her worst fears coming true when her husband left her and took their daughter with him. During a live episode of With Jesus, she decided to call the show and request prayer. The team prayed with her on-air. A few stressful weeks later, her husband and beloved daughter returned home to her.

Produced by Mounir Zakhary and directed by Marian Ramsis, the first season of With Jesus includes 16 episodes lasting 55 minutes each. Hosted by Mina and Michelle and the Prayer Service Team
for Kids, as many as 18 people are in front of the cameras at one time. This creates an atmosphere full of activity and energy.
