If you're looking for a news source that covers the stories mainstream outlets overlook — persecuted Christians overseas, revivals on college campuses, faith-driven humanitarian work — CBN News has been doing exactly that for decades.^1 Part of the Christian Broadcasting Network founded by Pat Robertson in 1960, CBN News grew from a segment on The 700 Club into a full-fledged newsroom with bureaus in Washington D.C. and Jerusalem, and in 2018 became the first 24-hour Christian television news channel.^2
The CBN News app brings that same coverage to your phone for free. You get breaking news alerts, full articles with embedded video, and on-demand episodes of shows like Faith Nation, Christian World News, Global Lane, Jerusalem Dateline, and Studio 5. A standout feature is "Pray the News" — a built-in prayer button on articles that lets you intercede for the stories you're reading and track your prayers over time.^3 There's also a free 24/7 live news stream right inside the app, no cable subscription or sign-in required.^4
With nearly 2.7 million YouTube subscribers, over 43 million monthly video views, and availability on iOS, Android, Amazon Fire TV, and Apple TV, CBN News reaches a massive global audience through multiple platforms.^5 The network is a nonprofit 501(c)(3) ministry accredited by the Evangelical Council for Financial Accountability (ECFA).^6
Why Christians Love It"This is one of the few networks that doesn't hate or slam anybody else. These articles are so informative yet very kind. I love that CBN has Christian values which are so forgiving and loving." ^3
"My favorite aspect of CBN News is that you report events and incidents that don't appear anywhere else!" ^3
"I started watching you guys when I started to distrust the MSM, and since I love my faith more than anything, you guys helped me combine the news with perspectives from people who think like me! Praise the Lord our God!" ^3
