The Catholic Life television network is a Catholic cable channel based in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, seen on Cox Cable channel 15 in Baton Rouge, and on Charter cable systems in Hammond (channel 74), New Roads (channel 44) and St. James Parish (channel 10).

Catholic Life is on the air 24 hours a day, seven days a week with programs geared towards Catholics in the Diocese of Baton Rouge, who owns and produces many of the station's programming. The station also carries syndicated programming produced by the Boston-based CatholicTV Network.

For a short time, the station aired Catholic High football games on a tape-delay basis, but it has since discontinued the broadcasts.
