God and the Media

It could not possibly be the case that something men have invented, like the media, could never be serviceable to God. ... For instance, once when I was standing waiting for a train in an underground station, a little man ... came up to me and asked permission to shake my hand. I gladly, and rather absentmindedly, extended a hand. ... As we shook hands, he remarked that some words of mine in a radio program had prevented him from committing suicide. The humbling thing was that I couldn't remember the particular program he had in mind; doubtless some panel or another, to me buffoonery, and yet a human life had hung on to it.
