Trinity Broadcasting Network, the world's largest religious broadcaster, has announced that several of its most popular faith and inspirational channels have launched at Folsom Prison through its TBN Second Chance program.
Mark Reynolds, national director for TBN Second Chance, explained that following several months of planning and coordination with officials at Folsom and the California Department of Corrections, Folsom Prison's nearly 3,000 inmates now have access to TBN’s four top faith networks: TBN's flagship channel, JCTV network for teens and young adults, the Churc Channel, featuring America’s best worship services and ministry programs; and Enlace, TBN's exclusive Spanish-language Christian network.
Reynolds noted that TBN Second Chance is working closely with state prison officials to facilitate the launch of TBN's networks throughout the remainder of California's correctional system. "We anticipate that in the coming months the majority of California's facilities will have access to Christian television through TBN Second Chance." he said. "We are excited to witness the lives and destinies that will be transformed through this strategic partnership."
For the past several years TBN Second Chance has worked closely with correctional officials and cable and satellite companies like Glorystar Satellite Systems to bring life-changing Christian television to prison facilities in California, Florida, Ohio, Louisiana, Texas, Kentucky, Michigan, Georgia, Illinois, Indiana, Colorado, Mississippi, Alabama, Missouri - 31 states so far. TBN covers the cost of equipment and installation, and inmates are provided with up to four of TBN’s most popular networks.
