It was originally started by Dr. Paul and Paulette Broyles in East Texas growing to 10 stations around the area. The station group was acquired by Dr. Randy Weiss and CrossTalk International in 2015. In partnership with EICBtv, a station group of 50 stations across the United States, and the IBN stations built by the Broyles, CrossTalk International felt it appropriate to name the new national net
work IBNtv in honor of the late Dr. Broyles and the ministry he poured his life into. WHY: For decades, the Weiss family has been following the Lord’s leading in building television stations around the country. God had simply said to capture the spectrum to proclaim the Gospel. Recently, it became evident that God wanted them to launch a network using all the tools He had provided. VISION/ PURPOSE: We see a future of Christian broadcasting that brings the
clear message of Jesus Christ to a hurting and confused world. We want to reach people where they are when they discover their need, on the devices they favor, in a language they understand and in a way which makes celebrity of the Messiah and him alone. If we lift Jesus up, HE will draw all men nigh. We intend to invest all we have been given, all we have learned and every partnership we can leverage to see this happen until the King returns. CONTENT: The Kingdom of God is like a treasure... His children are that treasure. With the diversity of people types and learning styles in the US alone, we must understand a need for diversity in programming. We also must be faithful to the truth of God’s Word in every way. Unity in the purpose and cause of the cross, the person of the Holy Spirit and the deity of Jesus Christ will be made clear in all content offered through IBNtv.
