Frank and Ernest (broadcast)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Frank and Ernest is the name of an international religious broadcast by the Dawn Bible Students Association that has been heard on many stations including Radio Luxembourg. The programme followed the format of either "Frank" asking "Ernest" a question or vice versa in order to expound upon the Bible.
In 1928 Norman Woodworth, following intense personal disagreement with the new policies the Watch Tower Bible and Tract Society, he left to create the radio program Frank and Ernest with the help of the Brooklyn congregation of Bible Students. He had previously been responsible for producing the same radio program for the Society.
The Dawn Bible Students Association was formed from the core group of followers of Charles Taze Russell following his death and the resulting split led by Judge Rutherford who founded the Jehovah Witnesses.
