700 Club

700 CLUB
 
The 700 Club  is the flagship television program of the Christian Broadcasting Network, airing each weekday in syndication in the United States and available worldwide on CBN.com.  The news magazine program features live guests, daily news, contemporary music, testimonies, and Christian ministry.  Celebrities and other guests are often interviewed, and Christian lifestyle issues are presented.  The program additionally features world news stories plus investigative reporting by the CBN News team.  The 700 Club has been in production since 1966.  It is hosted by Pat Robertson, Gordon P. Robertson, Terry Meeuwsen, and Wendy Griffith.

Another band that comes to mind that is not mentioned in the Best Theological Band Names list is the Stiv Bators/Dave Tregunna punk rock band Lords of the New Church; they had first performed together as part of past UARB the Wanderers.  The British alternative/dance band Jesus Jones had a 1990 hit called “Right Here, Right Now”.  

 

I have several others in my collection that include the truly strange 700 Club (with the name taken from the long-lived TV religious program 700 Cluband the classically trained musician who calls himself MC 900 Ft. Jesus (named for the vision by Oral Roberts that led to the construction of a controversial hospital tower on the campus of Oral Roberts University).
