Steve and Kathy Gray - What's Happening

The Steve & Kathy Show:
Bringing America a Religion that Works

"Get this message out to America - everybody can have the presence of God!" This message is being carried through the airwaves as people across America tune in to The Steve & Kathy Show. Using the medium of humor, satire, and hard-hitting truth, Steve and Kathy Gray are presenting a side to Christian TV that's rarely seen.

Accurately diagnosing the problem of powerless and ineffective Christianity so prevalent in our society, Steve and Kathy Gray are also providing the solution that will save America and save the church. They are not afraid to speak up and expose the absurdities of our religion and put the presence of God back where it belongs.

Tackling a wide range of topics such as terrorism, women in ministry, end times theology, and the Jews, The Steve & Kathy Show is both thought-provoking and, at times, controversial. "We're not trying to alienate people," Steve Gray explains, "but to pull people out of dead, dull religion."

Humor plays a big role in the presentation of these otherwise serious topics. Unafraid to poke fun at the religious system of which they have been full-time ministers for 30 years, the Grays are also willing to create some laughter at their own expense. Don't be surprised to see Steve and Kathy in some of the skits and spoofs used on the show. Recent episodes featured appearances of Steve and Kathy as the Beverly Hillbillies, Archie and Edith Bunker, and Romeo and Juliet caught in the throes of the battle of denominations. This "humor with a message" is tearing down walls and opening people's hearts - religious and secular alike - to the true message of Christianity.

Gray strongly believes "Americans have no problem with God," but that the problem lies with the way religion has presented God. As one viewer said recently, "The show ... grabbed my attention because it really hit on what I was feeling. I believe in God, but have struggled with going to church. I have no problem with God, but I do with religion."

No stranger to the religious system in America, Gray himself has experienced the effect of dead, ineffective Christianity. In 1996, he was ready to quit the ministry. "I preached what I thought was my last sermon, wondering if I would ever return to the pulpit." But on March 24, 1996, Gray experienced what he describes as the lightnings of God that catapulted him and his entire congregation into revival - an outpouring of God's presence that attracted this nation and the world's attention.

The concept of The Steve & Kathy Show was birthed out of this experience, coupled with the understanding that the typical American church is not giving us the power and presence of God our nation so desperately needs. As our nation faces the war on terror, Steve and Kathy Gray are waging their own war on powerless Christianity. Gray believes "The church's job is to bring the presence of God to people and to give America 'the God advantage', especially when it's facing societal ills such as broken families, rising suicide rates and random acts of violence - as well as world-scale issues like rising oil prices and terrorism."

Winner of 29 Telly Awards, a prestigious international award honoring outstanding video and film productions, The Steve & Kathy Show is a quality half-hour show that will entertain and endear you to the message and the ministry of Steve and Kathy Gray. Determined to change the face of religion in America, they've found a fresh and funny way to confront the absurdities of the American church and bring people a religion that works.
