TBN's Acquisition Of 'Holy Land Experience' Theme Park Seeks To Change More Lives

June 9, 2007 ORLANDO -- Trinity Broadcasting Network (TBN), the world's largest religious broadcaster and America's most-watched faith channel, hopes to change more lives through its addition of the "Holy Land Experience" theme park in Orlando, Fl., to the TBN family. Through the acquisition, TBN will bring an integration of the powerful living recreation of ancient Jerusalem with a cutting edge facility that will be used for television production, dramas, musical concerts, special events and movies.

"This marriage will bring an unprecedented synergy to both ministries and the production that is done there will be seen by a worldwide audience. TBN's involvement made sense, because both ministries are about changing and effecting people's lives. We've been doing that for 34 years," said Paul Crouch, Jr., TBN Vice President of Administration. "We believe this opportunity was heaven sent because it bought TBN an Orlando-based facility to fulfill it's local programming obligations for WGTL CH-52 and it will provide "The Holy Land Experience" with much needed promotion to bring more people to the theme park and Orlando as a whole."

The Holy Land Experience could well be considered Orlando's most inspiring destination as visitors experience a full day of discovery that takes them 2,000 years back in time to the world of the Bible. It brings to life ancient Israel as a unique, thriving world filled with fascinating exhibits and venues. Visitors learn about the Wilderness Tabernacle and the Great Temple; discover the amazing history of the Bible; explore the city of Jerusalem in miniature; see re-enactments of Jesus' ministry, His life, death, and resurrection; and feel the power and passion of our original musical productions.

WGTL TV, Channel 52, has a reach of over four million viewers in the Orlando and Cocoa Beach metropolitan areas with TBN's wide range of innovative faith-based programming. In October of 2006, TBN celebrated the inaugural broadcast of WGTL Ch-52 in Orlando with a dedicatory service attended by TBN founders Paul and Jan Crouch, Pastor Benny Hinn, Singer and Preacher Judy Jacobs hosted by Pastor George Cope and Calvary Assembly in Winter Park, Fl.

The combination of the production facilities and the Holy Land Experience offers Orlando visitors a powerful and unique faith based experience that can be promoted worldwide through the TBN network. The promotional capability can drive visitors to the complex.

"Some of the staff was asking what is going to be the immediate effect here at the park and my answer was 'I'm planning on you having more people coming through the turnstiles this summer,'" said Crouch. "Universal Studios does the same thing. We want the 'Holy Land Experience' to be a faith-based version of that."

God, Family, Country—Evangelist Bill Keller Scores Big With Only Nationally-Syndicated Biblical Worldview Television Talk Show

2006-10-27 -- WDC Media News -- (Jacksonville, Fl)-- Coming to “i” network (Formerly PAX TV) on November 6 is “Live Prayer With Bill Keller,” the nation’s only nationally-syndicated live television talk show addressing controversial current issues from a biblical worldview. “Live Prayer With Bill Keller” will air Monday through Friday from midnight to 1:00 am, providing a clear alternative to other late night talk shows by dealing with how issues such as divorce, homosexuality, abortion, relationships, addictions, abuse and more impact the day to day lives of real people. Keller, armed with his Bible, addresses these issues in a no-nonsense way by helping solve problems, giving hope, and bringing forth Biblical truth that viewers can see the value of strong families building a sound country by applying God’s Word to their real life scenarios. "Live Prayer" is very unique in that the guests are those who call in to discuss current events, their challenges, and how to apply Biblical truth to issues and situations. Its the only late night TV program that is live, unscripted, and unedited. No other talk show or host offers what Keller does - a fresh, totally spontaneous approach to problem solving. There is no preaching involved, just a lot of heart and soul, and a good deal of common sense from which his audience can draw in order to overcome their problems. “Everybody talks about reality TV, but what about those who are facing real problems and need to have solutions real-time? They can find some answers with Live Prayer With Bill Keller,” Keller says. “This show will take on the issues from a Biblical worldview. I tell it like it is—abortion is murder; homosexuality is sin. But I do it in a way that the Biblical truth will impress our guests and viewers with hope in their lives, a love for our nation and a renewed sense of direction from God Almighty.” Keller knows the program will change lives as well as promote the values of God, country and family. Already, “Live Prayer With Bill Keller” found tremendous success after being on for nearly 4 years. In 2003, Keller launched "Live Prayer With Bill Keller" on major network affiliates throughout Florida, and has consistently pulled in a quarter million viewers nightly in the Sunshine State alone. Now he expects to immediately draw a million-plus viewers per night for the national "Live Prayer" show, which will be airing against some of the most popular late-night fare. Keller knows first hand how following God’s word can change a life. He was a successful businessman until insider trading landed him in federal prison for 30 months in the late 80s. While there, he recommitted his life to Jesus Christ, finished his religious studies, and determined to share the message that helped him right his life. It was during this life experience that he realized that many people are searching their hearts for answers, but may never cross through the door of a church. Keller developed “Live Prayer” to reach out interactively to those who are seeking to fill an emptiness in their heart. In 1999 Keller launched LivePrayer.com, which has become the most successful online faith outreach in history. Since its inception LivePrayer.com has responded personally to more than 60 million online requests for prayer. And Keller’s "Live Prayer" devotional is received daily by more than two million e-mail subscribers. For information on where to watch "Live Prayer" in your area, visit www.liveprayer.com.
