Présence protestante is a France 2 religious programme that presents Protestant Christianity.[1] It has been produced since the 1950s broadcast every Sunday morning since October 9, 1955.[2]

History

Présence protestante debuted on October 2, 1955 which was presented by Marcel Gosselin, under the leadership of Marc Boegner who was the president of the Protestant Federation of France.[3] Broadcast by RTF, it was originally titled Émission protestante, then renamed to Présence protestante after a similar French-speaking Swiss program.[4] The show was presented by Marcel Gosselin, who was replaced by Jean Doman in 1980.[2]

Présence protestante deals with theology on French television from a Protestant perspective.[5][6][7]

In 1961, the Protestant clergy made an agreement that meant that Présence protestante was afforded 1 hour broadcasting time on Easter and Christmas.[2]

Since the privatisation of French television channels in 1986, religious programs are broadcast on Antenne 2 (now France 2).[8]
