From the Associated Press: “Christian Singer/Songwriter Derek Webb to co-host the view during a month-long (June) leave in which Emmy-award winning host Elizabeth Hassleback will be on sabbatical. Derek’s career began as co-lead singer of the Christian pop band Caedman’s Call and continues as a solo artist with much critical favor. His music has appeared on television shows including Greys Anatomy and The Discovery Channel’s The Deadliest Catch.”
It looks like The View is trying to keep their evangelical audience in tact during Hasselback’s leave, so they are bringing in Christian men. It’s cool to see media becoming more open about the fact so many of their viewers are Christians. Should make for some terrific conversation, I would think. I’m only frustrated I never got the call! So Derek will host only one episode (give him more!) and other Christian men will be taking the other episodes, including Joel Hunter, Jim Wallis, Max Lucado (Max Lucado has always been a huge draw for the ladies), Gary Haugen, Pastor Rick McKinley, Erwin McManus, Dan Haseltine and Brandon Heath. Mark Driscoll will also be filling in for Whoopi Golberg for one episode in August.
Great job, guys! Have fun. I’m available too. Just saying. I have nothing going on in June. Nothing!
Thanks , I have recently been searching for info approximately this subject for ages and yours is the best I’ve discovered so far. However, what about the bottom line? Are you sure about the source?
