Caught the second episode of this tonight. The show is called “God or the Girl”, and it follows four young Catholic men as they’re trying to decide whether or not they’re called to the priesthood. It seems to be taking a positive look at the Catholic church, yet it’s not something that’s aired on a Catholic channel. Instead, it’s being promoted by A&E. It intrigues me. And I think that’s the whole point. In it, not of it. When you segregate your culture and give it its own channel, you take away your legitimacy. But when a mainstream network like A&E carries a show on God, people stop and take note.
Just a thought.
