Some of his best selling titles are the Measure of books published by Regal and the One Another books published by Victor. His Men of Character series published by Broadman & Holman are impacting the current men's movement. More about Dr. Getz (excerpts from his profile): Throughout his educational and vocational experiences, Gene has specialized in communications. He established the first audio/visual center that existed on a Bible college campus while teaching at Moody Bible Institute. When he came to Dallas Theological Seminary to teach in the Christian Education Department in 1968, he was also charged with setting up and developing an up-to-date media center for use at the graduate level.Interspersed throughout Gene's ministry experiences, he has also been involved in a variety of radio experiences. While in Billings, Montana, he sang in a radio quartet on a half hour daily program sponsored by the Montana Gospel Crusade and directed and produced a 15 minute weekly youth program. While directing the Moody Evening School in Chicago, he created and hosted a 30-minute weekly program called "Evening School Echoes" and launched an evening program called "Class In Session"--a 60-minute live broadcast from a Moody Evening School classroom designed to allow students in the radio audience to participate. He was also the first professor at Moody Bible Institute to bring students into the studio to conduct interactive classes on WMBI's Radio School of the Bible. Since coming to Dallas, Gene hosted a live call in program on the Criswell Network for five years called "Let's Talk"--a program designed to do on the air pastoral counseling. More recently, he has launched a 15-minute weekday program called "Renewal" which is aired on the Moody Radio Network. The format consists of brief messages, interviews, discussions and pre-recorded telephone responses. Renewal is one of the first Christian programs produced exclusively by utilizing Digital Audio Editing and Mastering. Gene has continued to utilize his communication experience in his pastoral ministry. Each week, he does illustrated sermons using two rear screen projectors which he controls and operates from the pulpit. He has recently completed a 12-part video series on Spiritual Maturity that has been distributed nationally and internationally. Gene states, "I've tried to draw on all of my years of communication and media experience in communicating the message of the Word of God. I'm fortunate to have a church board that has caught my vision for using the latest technology to communicate God's eternal truth." |
