God's Learning Channel
Encyclopedia : G : GO : GOD : God's Learning Channel
God's Learning Channel (or GLC) is a Christian television network which is based in the Southwestern United States. It describes itself as "teaching the Torah and the true roots of Christianity", and its programming features a mixture of Christian and Jewish teachers.
The network was founded in 1982 by Al and Tommie Cooper with its first full-powered station based in Roswell, New Mexico. It is now produced in Odessa, Texas by Prime Time Christian Broadcasting Inc with KMLM-TV serving as the flagship station. The network is available on terrestrial broadcast television and cable TV systems. With five full power stations (four of which have DTV counterparts for compliancy with the FCC's 2009 standards) and 22 low-power TV stations, GLC has a solid southwestern United States base. God's Learning Channel is also broadcast from the AMC 4 satellite, as a free-to-air channel on the Intelsat Americas 5 satellite for direct-to-home broadcast dishes, and is available as streaming video over the Internet. On April 15th, 2006, GLC launched on APR-1 (Insat 2E) to provide its signal to India, Israel, Asia, Eastern Europe, Russia, the Middle East and Australia. Because of the APR-1 satellite, GLC has established a foundation on many cable systems in India.
GLC focuses on several main aspects that effect the Church today:
- Bridging the gap between Christians and their hebraic heritage.
- Standing against Replacement Theology by proving through scripture that Christians do not Replace the Jews as the Chosen people, but are rather grafted in to the promises given to their father Abraham.
- Standing against the Middle Eastern Islamic doctrine that states, "All Jews and Christians are infidels, and should be converted to Islam or be killed, and that Israel does not have the right to exist as a Jewish state."
