Full Circle Rewind

by Karina Hunter

A casual atmosphere encourages plenty of open dialogue between host Anne Maise and her guests during a taping of Full Circle Rewind.

Full Circle Rewind, a 30-minute daily version of Friday’s popular one-hour “100 Huntley Street Full Circle” went to air last week with great reception from viewers.  

For over four years now, the Full Circle edition of 100 Huntley Street has enjoyed an engaging, friendly format appeals especially to women, of all ages, though many men have said they watch too!  A diverse panel of women make up the “regulars,” representing different ages, experiences, ethnic backgrounds and church persuasions,  the most important thing is that Jesus is the foundation of their lives.  Beyond that, the door is open for different opinions, and “getting real” is a major key to its effectiveness.  It is a lively, open forum discussion on matters of the heart from a Christian perspective… matters like keeping marriages strong, dealing with stress, effective parenting and coping with the past promising to bring viewers fresh re-packaging of the best interviews and interactions over the last four years of it’s weekly one-hour version.

The group is strong on informality with their team relaxing on couches as they sip coffee. Guests include authors, experts, and just “ordinary” people with extraordinary stories. “Full Circle Rewind” continues this unique tradition with a fresh re-packaging of some of the best interviews and interaction over the last four years.

This new approach to an old favourite is sure to appeal to both loyal viewers of the old version and plenty of new fans as well. Host Ann Mainse was feeling quite
blessed to have this new opportunity, when I asked about the pressures of the broadcast’s new format, Mainse was full of positivity, quickly replying that “We’re excited to be able to connect with viewers on a daily basis!” said Mainse continuing that “We are very excited about this new opportunity and are thrilled at the reception we’ve had this week!” Good luck to Mainse and all the crew of Crossroads Christian Communications in this new venture, it is sure to bless the lives of many viewers across the country.
