Overview of TBN

TBN began with a dream. A vision. To build a Christian television network that spans the whole world ! From a humble beginning in 1973, the dream grew. And grew. And grew. More and more people caught the vision of TBN's founders; Paul and Jan Crouch.

TBN is now the world's largest Christian television network. Across America and around the world TBN is carried by TV stations and cable systems to millions of homes. As a matter of fact, TBN is featured on over 5,000 television stations, 33 satellites, the Internet and thousands of cable systems around the world. And the number continues to grow!


Programs are translated into numerous foreign languages at TBN's state-of-the-art facilities at the International Production Center in Irving, Texas.

Like old friends, prominent people drop in frequently to chat on "Praise the Lord" -- TBN's flagship production. From all walks of life, they come to share on TV their faith in God. Leading pastors from America's largest churches. Astronauts. Champion athletes. War heroes. Movie stars. Country music entertainers. And it's televised "live" from TBN production facilities throughout the US.

TBN produces more original Christian programs than any other religious network. Gospel music concerts from Nashville. "Live" coverage of major Christian events. Informative talk shows with exciting guests.

Health and nutrition programs with Christian family doctors. Fitness programs.

Children's shows with positive moral values. Hot contemporary Christian music videos. Marriage enrichment series. Holiday specials! Inspiring Christian dramas and movies. Uplifting worship services from America's largest churches. And more!

TBN is a recognized leader in the production of major Christian movies. TBN's cinematic achievements include: "The Revolutionary" and "The Revolutionary II," based on the life of Jesus; "The Emissary," a film on the life of the apostle Paul; "The Omega Code"; "Carman: The Champion"; "Megiddo"; and "Time Changer." Currently under production is TBN's newest end time thriller, "Six: The Mark Unleashed," starring Stephen Baldwin and David White, scheduled to premiere on the TBN network in 2004.

Trinity Music City, USA is Nashville's newest tourist attraction. Thousands of visitors come every week! The former estate of country music legend Conway Twitty, the complex includes the 2000-seat Trinity Music City Church Auditorium. Crowds are "packing out the house" to attend TBN-produced concerts, dramas, seminars and special events.

TBN is on the cutting edge of technology with our state-of-the-art Virtual Reality Theaters. TBN operates these Virtual Reality Theaters at Trinity Music City in Nashville, International Production Center in Dallas, and at the TBN Headquarters at Trinity Christian City International in Costa Mesa, California.
