Christian Broadcasting Networks Asia (CBN Asia) is a non-stock nonprofit corporation established in the Philippines and Hong Kong on October 1, 1994. It is inspired by the Christian Broadcasting Network (CBN), founded in the United States by Pat Robertson in 1961.
CBN Asia is involved in several ministries that spread the Gospel in Asian nations, primarily through The 700 Club Asia, a locally produced weeknight television program, as well as other TV specials.
Its ministries include the humanitarian aid foundation Operation Blessing (OB), [1] the Asian counterpart of the US-based Operation Blessing International. Since 1994, OB humanitarian missions have expanded from the Philippines to operate in China, India, Indonesia, Thailand, and Taiwan. In 1996, OB became the humanitarian arm of CBN Asia, Inc., which was founded by Gordon P. Robertson. [2]
CBN Asia also participates in the Asian Center for Missions project, an Asia-wide network for spreading the Gospel, which also comprises the Philippines for Jesus Movement (PJM), the Philippine Council of Evangelical Churches (PCEC), the Asian Seminary of Christian Ministries (ASCM), the International Bible Society, and other Asian church and fellowship groups.
CBN Asia produced a telefilm and documentary, which have occasionally aired on GMA Network and ABS-CBN, usually during the Holy Week, and also airs on Light TV.
