Ep27: In The World, Not Of The World (1/1989)

This week, it’s a whole NEW YEAR as Steve and Alec take a look at the January 1989 episode of Fire By Nite, titled “In the World, Not of the World”.
 
About 10 years before NOTW would become a clothing brand that defined fashion for a generation of adolescent believers, Blaine and crew would reveal the SHOCKING truth of our extra-terrestrial origins, letting FBN’s teen audience know that when you are a Christian, you truly are 'Not Of This World'. You are an alien ambassador sent by President Jesus to reach out to the people of Earthrealm, and offer them eternal life. All you need to do is prepare for the return of the comet Hale-Bopp and…..wait, sorry, wrong video for that last one.

PLUS, the sounds of CCM chanteuse Renee Garcia, as she debuts the video for her end times pop anthem “Jerusalem”!


This Fire is taking an in depth look at Fire By Nite - a Christian teen variety show produced at the height of the 1980s Satanic Panic.
