[edit] Programming
GOD TV is available to subscribers through DIRECTV on Channel 365 and is also streamed online 24 hours a day. Network principals include Benny Hinn, Mike Bickle, Todd Bentley, Brian Houston, Joyce Meyer and John Hagee.
In May 2008, GOD TV broke with its regularly scheduled programming to broadcast the Fresh Fire Ministries’ revival with Todd Bentley [3] This was the first time that a spiritual revival had been broadcast live across a plethora of mediums for the masses to view and experience. [4]
[edit] Philanthropic Initiatives
A percentage of all donations received by the GOD TV network goes directly into charitable initiatives, such as feeding school children in South Africa, caring for orphans of HIV/AIDS in Malawi through the Kondanani Childrens' Village, as well as the purchase of water drilling rigs to bring drought relief to arid areas of East Africa.
