I was surprised the other day when UCB aired a Vineyard worship seminar where some really cool authors were giving insight into a deeper life in Christ.  It's rare when I see that on Christian television. When this stuff from Yancey, Eldredge, Rob Bell, Richard Foster gets more air time, you'd think it could compete with the pablum we see on Oprah, ya know?
