Our Christian Heritage TV

Join host Randy Melchert as we travel America and talk to historians, pastors, musicians, professors, laymen and more as we discover Our Christian Heritage. We’ll go on location to the places where the events happened, and talk to the experts who know the stories. We’ll learn about Billy Sunday – in his living room! We’ll hear about J. Gresham Machen and 20th century Presbyterians who suffered for their convictions. We’ll talk to a pastor about the Christian Hall of Fame in his church. And we’ll even go to Pennsylvania to find Ira Sankey’s melodion.
