'''TBN Inspire''' is an American Christian [[terrestrial television|broadcast]] [[television network]] owned by the [[Trinity Broadcasting Network]] (TBN). It is carried on the [[digital subchannel]]s of TBN's stations. |
||
The network originally launched as '''The Church Channel''', which focused on carrying [[brokered programming|brokered]] broadcasts of various Christian church services. In 2016, the network was re-launched as a broadcast feed of '''Hillsong Channel'''—a [[joint venture]] with the [[Hillsong Church]], which added its services and original programming to the schedule. In 2022, the network rebranded again as TBN Inspire, maintaining the original format as The Church Channel. |
|||
==Overview== |
|||
The network's programming consists of Christian worship services, 90% of which must be of an instructional, evangelistic or ministerial nature. The network puts strict guidelines on fundraising and other announcements, limiting them to 10% of the program.<ref>http://www.thechurchchannel.org/request/policy_guide.htm</ref> The Church Channel encourages churches to submit recordings of their services with the intent of putting them on the air. |
|||
== History == |
|||
The Church Channel is available over-the-air on [[digital subchannel]]s of TBN [[owned-and-operated station|owned-and-operated]] and affiliated stations nationwide, usually on the second subchannel (for example, if the local TBN station broadcasts on channel 17, then The Church Channel would be carried on digital subchannel 17.2). |
|||
The network originally launched on January 14, 2002, as '''The Church Channel''', which was devoted primarily to carrying church service programs from various Christian ministries and denominations, often under [[brokered programming|brokered]] arrangements.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.thegazette.com/2009/12/29/tbn-to-stop-carrying-coral-ridge-hour|title=TBN to stop carrying 'Coral Ridge Hour'|website=The Gazette|access-date=January 11, 2019}}</ref> |

On March 9, 2016, TBN announced a partnership with the [[Sydney]]-based international congregation [[Hillsong Church]], that would see The Church Channel re-branded as the '''Hillsong Channel'''—a network devoted to its ministry, teaching, and [[Contemporary worship music|worship music]]. Hillsong founder [[Brian Houston]] stated that the channel would be a "Christ-centred, Bible-based television channel that changes mindsets and empowers people to lead and impact in every sphere of life", and would be "constantly looking towards the future–filled with a vision that inspires and influences many."<ref>{{Cite web |title=Hillsong Launches 24/7 TV Channel Featuring Music, Bible Teaching |url=https://www.christianheadlines.com/blog/hillsong-launches-24-7-tv-channel-featuring-music-bible-teaching.html |access-date=January 11, 2019 |website=ChristianHeadlines.com}}</ref><ref>{{Cite news |last=Paulson |first=Michael |date=September 9, 2014 |title=Megachurch With a Beat Lures a Young Flock |language=en-US |work=The New York Times |url=https://www.nytimes.com/2014/09/10/us/hillsong-megachurch-with-a-beat-lures-a-young-flock.html |access-date=January 11, 2019 |issn=0362-4331}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |title=Hillsong Church launches 'life-changing' new 24/7 TV channel |url=https://www.christiantoday.com/article/hillsong-church-launches-life-changing-new-24-7-tv-channel/87321.htm |access-date=January 11, 2019 |website=ChristianToday.com |date=June 2016 |language=en}}</ref> The new channel officially launched June 1, 2016.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.christianheadlines.com/blog/hillsong-launches-24-7-tv-channel-featuring-music-bible-teaching.html|title=Hillsong Launches 24/7 TV Channel Featuring Music, Bible Teaching|website=ChristianHeadlines.com|access-date=January 11, 2019}}</ref><ref>{{Cite news|url=https://www.nytimes.com/2014/09/10/us/hillsong-megachurch-with-a-beat-lures-a-young-flock.html|title=Megachurch With a Beat Lures a Young Flock|last=Paulson|first=Michael|date=September 9, 2014|work=The New York Times|access-date=January 11, 2019|language=en-US|issn=0362-4331}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.christiantoday.com/article/hillsong-church-launches-life-changing-new-24-7-tv-channel/87321.htm|title=Hillsong Church launches 'life-changing' new 24/7 TV channel|website=ChristianToday.com|date=June 2016 |language=en|access-date=January 11, 2019}}</ref> An over-the-top subscription service, '''Hillsong Channel Now''', launched in November 2017. |

On January 1, 2022, the US feed of the network was rebranded as TBN Inspire, with no change in programming. TBN stated in a notice to carriage providers that the change was intended to "speak more clearly to how we are programming the network".<ref name="tbn_inspire_pr">{{cite press release|title=Hillsong will become TBN Inspire on January 1, 2022|publisher=TBN/National Cable Television Cooperative|date=November 18, 2021|url=https://www.nctconline.org/index.php/members/resources/technical-notices/item/1814-hillsong-will-become-tbn-inspire-on-january-1-2022|access-date=November 27, 2021}}</ref> |

The international Hillsong Channel operations and the Hillsong Channel Now online service were initially unaffected by the January 2022 rebrand in the United States. However, following Hillsong Church's internal investigation over the alleged inappropriate behavior against women by co-founder Brian Houston, and his subsequent resignation as the church's senior global pastor in March 2022,<ref name="alexander2022" /><ref name="knowles2022" /> TBN began rebranding its linear Hillsong Channel operations outside the US as TBN Inspire as well beginning April 2022, and removed Hillsong programming from their schedule (with a version operated by TBN Pacific, which is available in Australia, following suit on April 28). The Hillsong Channel website and Hillsong Channel Now service, as operated by the church, remained operational until 2023 with the website redirecting to the Hillsong Church and the service removed from app marketplaces respectively. |

On February 25, 2024, Hillsong Channel was removed from the [[Foxtel]] platform putting an end to Hillsong Channel globally with the network's YouTube channel renamed to Hillsong Collected.<ref>{{Cite web |date=February 11, 2024 |title=Foxtel for Your Business |url=https://www.foxtel.com.au/business/your-business.html |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20240223213751/https://www.foxtel.com.au/business/your-business.html |archive-date=February 23, 2024 |access-date=February 23, 2024 |website=[[Foxtel]]}}</ref> |

TBN Inspire is an American Christian broadcast television network owned by the Trinity Broadcasting Network (TBN). It is carried on the digital subchannels of TBN's stations.
The network originally launched as The Church Channel, which focused on carrying brokered broadcasts of various Christian church services. In 2016, the network was re-launched as a broadcast feed of Hillsong Channel—a joint venture with the Hillsong Church, which added its services and original programming to the schedule. In 2022, the network rebranded again as TBN Inspire, maintaining the original format as The Church Channel.
History
[edit]The network originally launched on January 14, 2002, as The Church Channel, which was devoted primarily to carrying church service programs from various Christian ministries and denominations, often under brokered arrangements.[1]
On March 9, 2016, TBN announced a partnership with the Sydney-based international congregation Hillsong Church, that would see The Church Channel re-branded as the Hillsong Channel—a network devoted to its ministry, teaching, and worship music. Hillsong founder Brian Houston stated that the channel would be a "Christ-centred, Bible-based television channel that changes mindsets and empowers people to lead and impact in every sphere of life", and would be "constantly looking towards the future–filled with a vision that inspires and influences many."[2][3][4] The new channel officially launched June 1, 2016.[5][6][7] An over-the-top subscription service, Hillsong Channel Now, launched in November 2017.
On January 1, 2022, the US feed of the network was rebranded as TBN Inspire, with no change in programming. TBN stated in a notice to carriage providers that the change was intended to "speak more clearly to how we are programming the network".[8]
The international Hillsong Channel operations and the Hillsong Channel Now online service were initially unaffected by the January 2022 rebrand in the United States. However, following Hillsong Church's internal investigation over the alleged inappropriate behavior against women by co-founder Brian Houston, and his subsequent resignation as the church's senior global pastor in March 2022,[9][10] TBN began rebranding its linear Hillsong Channel operations outside the US as TBN Inspire as well beginning April 2022, and removed Hillsong programming from their schedule (with a version operated by TBN Pacific, which is available in Australia, following suit on April 28). The Hillsong Channel website and Hillsong Channel Now service, as operated by the church, remained operational until 2023 with the website redirecting to the Hillsong Church and the service removed from app marketplaces respectively.
On February 25, 2024, Hillsong Channel was removed from the Foxtel platform putting an end to Hillsong Channel globally with the network's YouTube channel renamed to Hillsong Collected.[11]
