The gospel is reaching
beyond government
censorship...
Did you know almost every house in Arab countries has a satellite dish, even in remote villages? It is extremely hard for governments to block satellite channels, so Muslims have unlimited access to our free satellite channel without the danger of censorship like the internet.
Glory TV has been broadcasting the gospel 24/7 ever since its launch in 2017, reaching 465 million Arab Muslims who live under the darkness of Islam.
Every program is specifically produced for the young Muslims under the age of 30 who make up over 60% of the Muslim population! Series are written to help Muslims critically think about their beliefs and introduce them to Jesus and biblical teachings they’ve never dared to consider before.

“A few months ago I started watching your channel on satellite. I learned that Jesus Christ is the light in the middle of darkness. Today I am declaring that I have accepted Christ in my life as my Savior.”
Mohamed in Saudi Arabia
“Through your women’s programs, I learned that I am equal to men in God’s eyes through Jesus Christ. Thank you for helping me know Jesus Christ who is now my Lord and Savior. I will make sure my kids know Him too!”
Fatima in Syria

Testimonies From Glory TV
Basma's Story
Basma is a young Iraqi woman who lives in Turkey as a refugee with her husband and daughter. When Basma first reached out on WhatsApp, she was very skeptical about Christians and did not even give the contact center her name.
As she watched Glory TV, she became jealous of Christians because Christ had come to be their Savior. She said:
“You are blessed because Christ came for you. I want to believe, but Allah will not forgive me for leaving Islam.”
Out of fear, Basma rejected our offer to call her and speak over the phone, and then she disappeared for a while. She recently came back to us with more questions, specifically about help interpreting a dream she had about Jesus.
Our team connected Basma with Redeemed Church's discipleship pastor, who spoke with her for hours, helping her understand her dream and sharing the gospel with her. At the end of the call, Basma said she finally felt peace and she accepted Christ as her Savior!
Hamila and
Waleed's story
Hamila lived a life expected of a Muslim woman in Yemen, but she didn’t find any meaning in living up to Islamic standards. She heard about Jesus Christ from the most unlikely source, old western television series and movies. Hamila searched for information about Christ in Arabic, finding Glory TV on social media and satellite TV. After watching our programs, Hamila quickly reached out with a list of questions!
The contact center answered all her questions, leading Hamila to joyfully accepted Christ into her heart! Then she immediately wanted to share Jesus with her family members, even though she knew they might punish her for it. Hamila gave us the phone numbers for her sisters and her husband, Waleed.
At first, Waleed reluctantly agreed to talk to the team, but the difference he saw in his wife’s life convinced him there might be something real behind her change. He started to read the Bible with Hamila, asking questions and discovering the truth about Christ. Now they are raising their five children as faithful Christ followers. We are still in contact with Hamila’s sisters helping them learn about Jesus.
Maged's Story
Maged is a young married factory worker in Egypt who discovered Glory TV while flipping through channels on his satellite television. After watching in secret for a few days, Maged took the brave step to message our contact center. He told them, “I want to know the truth.”
Muslims are not allowed to question their religion– many are born into it and raised without the choice of discovering what they truly believe in their hearts. Maged told us he did not trust the sheikhs of Islam to answer any of his questions.
He was very hesitant talking to our contact center and explained how much he stood to lose just by speaking to the team: his wife and children, his extended family, and his entire community would reject him. Even after being convinced that Jesus was the Way, the Truth, and the Light, Maged took many weeks to deliberate over his decision.
After three months, Maged called our team and told them, “I have decided I want Christ to be my Savior.”
How can a Muslim find support on their journey to know Christ?
When a Muslim viewer of Glory TV is watching the programs, there is a chat number scrolling on the bottom of the screen. They can call, chat, or text a biblically trained team of Christian evangelists who can answer their questions and share the gospel with them.
The contact center is available 17 hours a day, 7 days a week, so Muslims can safely seek Christ when family members are asleep or at work. The contact center team walks alongside Muslims as they read the Bible for the first time, ask questions, and wrestle with the decision to surrender their life to Christ.

How are Muslim converts discipled after they accept Christ?
Muslim converts in Islamic countries and communities are always at risk of being discovered by their families or governments. They are often rejected from the underground church until they can prove they won’t bring danger with them. These redeemed believers are isolated and alone.
But the need for discipleship and fellowship is the same for every believer. Through the custom-built secure online platform of Redeemed Church, isolated believers can enjoy unity with the Body of Christ without putting themselves at risk.
