Looking for wholesome movies and shows the whole family can watch without worry? Redeem TV is a free, ad-free Christian streaming service with a library of over 2,000 titles — dramas, documentaries, animated features, children's series, Bible studies, and more — with new content added weekly.^1
Built by Vision Video and the Christian History Institute, Redeem TV carries over five decades of Christian filmmaking expertise. Founded by Ken Curtis as Gateway Films in the early 1970s, the organization has produced and distributed faith-based media through every major format shift — from 16mm church films to home video to streaming.^2 Redeem TV launched in March 2020 and is entirely donor-supported through Redeem3:16 partnerships, meaning no subscription fees, no ads, and no paywalls for the vast majority of content.^1
The platform spans a wide range of genres — from apologetics and church history documentaries to family comedies, animated kids' shows like Torchlighters and Owlegories, and original series like Vindication, which completed its fourth season in March 2025. A follow-up series, Vindication: Search & Rescue, has been confirmed.^3 Vindication also streams on Angel Studios (since February 2025) and Great American Family, extending its reach beyond Redeem TV.^5 The service is available on iOS, Android, Roku, Amazon Fire, Apple TV, and via web browsers, with a Live TV channel and rental options for select premium titles.^1
