In my sophomore year of college, a room-mate of mine loaned me a tape of a radio drama produced by an organization called Eternal Vision.

Some very generous venture capitalists have thrown a substantial amount of money to the folks at UStream.TV, enabling lowly folks like myself to broadcast video events on the Internet, using nothing more than a Flash-enabled browser.

On Sunday, February 3, 2008, our pastor, Dr. Dan Sweatt, informed the congregation that Berean Baptist Church may be included in a Good Morning America "Super Tuesday" Election episode on February 5.
