Christian Television Network (CTN) is a non-profit broadcast television network of small owned-and-operated stations (O&O) that broadcasts religious programming. It is based in Largo, Florida (with a mailing address of Clearwater), and the flagship station is WCLF channel 22, which signed on the air in the Tampa Bay region in 1979. It is now available on DirecTV channel 376 and Dish Network channel 267/9399. It was founded by Robert D'Andrea, who is still the president.

Program services

CTN operates three channels:

  • The main CTN service focuses primarily on televangelism with some alternative medicine infomercials.
  • CTNi is also televangelism-based but with all programming in Spanish.
  • CTN Lifestyle includes secular syndicated programming (such as Small Town Big Deal, Positively Paula and Ron Hazelton's HouseCalls) along with some Christian talk shows (The 700 Club, AFA Focal Point), movies and Christian-themed entertainment programs.

Stations (by callsign)

All stations are owned and operated by CTN unless specified. Stations indicated by two plus signs ("++") are stations that were signed on by CTN or a CTN subsidiary.

CTN's Puerto Rico outlets are owned by Senda Educational Broadcasting, a subsidiary of CTN.
