religious broadcasting

Televised worship services

Religious broadcasting is radio or television programming devoted to religious content—sermons, worship services, gospel music, evangelism, or faith-based discussion.

The term covers everything from Sunday morning church services to dedicated networks like TBN or EWTN.

Religious broadcasting grew dramatically with the rise of televangelism in the 1980s.
