24/7 Arab-Christian TelevisionCBNews.com LOS ANGELES, CA (ANS) -- Samuel and Mona, an Egyptian born couple now living in Southern California, are two of the most self-effacing people you could ever meet. Both hail from Cairo in Egypt, but instead of settling for the American dream of having a home in the suburbs, they have decided instead to make history. For this gentle husband and wife team has dug deep into their own pockets to launch the first 24/7 Arabic Christian television channel in America called Alkarma TV, which means “The Vineyard” in Arabic. And they run it out of their own home and aim it to the estimated 12 million Arabic speaking people in the US, Canada, and Mexico. In a recent interview for my Window on the World radio show, I asked them both to begin by outlining their early life in Egypt before they moved to America.
