TV evangelism
Religious television broadcasting
TV evangelism is religious ministry conducted through television broadcasting, typically featuring charismatic preachers soliciting donations from viewers.
The practice emerged in mid-20th-century America and became associated with megachurch culture, faith healing, and prosperity gospel teachings.
TV evangelism reached its peak in the 1980s before several scandals tarnished its reputation.
