Free Christian Satellite Television

Christian TV with no ongoing costs that is legal

Free Christian Television

There are now about ten free Christian television channels available from Satellite all over the world which are even easier to obtain than pay TV. These free TV channels are legal and are intentionally made available for anyone who would like to view them and are supported financially by those who choose to be generous enough to offer them donations to keep their service going. These Christian television channels also have an extensive variety of content and below is just a small example of what is available:

There are also a large number of free Foreign Language Channels as well as the free Christian television channels that will automatically be tuned in by your Satellite receiver on its installation and are updated on an ongoing basis. Some of these foreign television channels are also English speaking and some have subtitles.

So why bother paying monthly pay TV costs when you can get free Christian TV that is actually good for your family? With pay TV, you are paying for the monthly service and the hire of the equipment which is bundled into one monthly price. With free-to-air Christian television, you buy the equipment, you own it and you can use it as often as you like and as long as you like at no extra cost.

There are at least 10 free Christian channels available in almost all areas around the world now and these channels are totally legal and totally free, and all that is required to receive these channels is a satellite dish and satellite receiver. This is very much like your standard set-top box and the technology is very similar to most satellite pay TV installations. Once you purchase a receiver and have a dish installed and aligned there is nothing more to pay ever again unless of course the equipment needs a service as some electronic equipment does occasionally fail.

How to get Free Christian TV

Please note that the purpose of this web site is only to make the public aware that this free Christian satellite TV is available. We do not sell Christian television or install satellite television so please do not email us asking how or where to get it. Below is all the information we can give you.

Satellite receiver for free televisionIf you have previously had satellite pay TV before and the dish has been left behind, it is possible that you may only need the Satellite receiver and the dish realigned and could be as cheap as $120 AUS if you are competent enough to realign your dish or have a friend who could do it for you. There are also small inexpensive satellite finders that change in audible pitch when you are pointed at a satellite that cost as little as $50 AUS if you really want to do it yourself but are having trouble finding the Satellite.

Satellite dish for free televisionInstallation is relatively simple but as just mentioned, some have difficulty in pointing the dish correctly. Some of the free Christian channel's support web sites in Australia and have self install instructions on their site. If you want an experienced technician to install it for you, there are many people who will do this for an average cost of $400 AUS, which includes all hardware costs as well and is the one and only financial outlay.

There are also some dish initiative programs in Australia and possibly in other countries also that will install the equipment for free for a trial period and you pay for the equipment only if you decide you want to keep it.

Tuning Parameters for Christian Channels

There are over fifty free satellite channels including the foreign ones but our focus will only be the free Christian channels. So if you already have a satellite receiver and a dish pointed at the appropriate satellite for your location in the world, all you need is to enter the correct parameters into your receiver, if not already there, such as frequency, polarization and symbol rate etc, and then rescan for new channels. Below is a current list of Christian channels but please note that the examples given below that include all the main Christian channels are for the Optus D2 satellite in Australia and New Zealand only.

Please keep in mind that the first three channels in bold have the best programming that are the most Biblical.
