Let's define influential... and who do they influence and to what end?
I tend to enjoy John Macarthur's broadcasts. He broadcasts nationally. How many people listen? I dunno. I know I find his stuff very challenging and helpful. None of this cotton-candy Christianity for me. I like my steak medium rare thanks.
....influential is the daily, public ringing of all church bells!
....to what end.....that of Christian Public 'Call to Worship and Prayer'.....
.....it is just one part of historic American Christian 'Liberty' as opposed to tolerance!!!
/All churches should have and RING......'their'....Churchbells!!!
/British Religion's god-of-....Charles-Darwin.....
