Revelation TV and SonLife Broadcasting Network have joined forces to provide a new package of channels on Freeview.
The 'Christian TV' package offers Bible-based programming to audiences with either the latest FreeviewHD enabled television set or a set top box.
It is the first package of free to view Christian channels broadcasting on Freeview channel 113 and is delivered by Vision247.
Revelation TV is a Christian broadcaster with an established religious audience in the UK, while SonLife Broadcasting Network (SBN) brings 24-hour Christian faith television from the Jimmy Swaggart Ministries, based in Baton Rouge, in the US.
From Freeview channel 113, viewers can access ‘Christian TV’ by navigating through the channel selection pages with the TV remote and choosing to watch live Christian TV.
John Mills, chief executive of Vision247, said: “Our broadcast delivery platform was created to help break down the barriers for specialist channels, delivering new, larger audiences with broadcast quality content they want to watch.
"Extending our existing success in delivering religious broadcasts to the Freeview platform, with the potential to reach every living room in the UK, is particularly satisfying and we are very pleased to be supported in this endeavour by both RevelationTV and the SonLife Broadcasting Network.”
