TCT Network, also known as Tri-State Christian Television is a small network of religious television stations in America. The channel was founded in 1977 by Garth and Tina Coonce as an alternative to the secular and often violent nature of television in general. From the mid 1980 to 2007 the network was actually an affiliate of TBN but would later break off into its own channel. The channel grew through purchase of independent channels across America which would also allow it to be shown on local TV cable systems.
The channel airs a mix of programming of a Christian nature including TCT Alive, TCT Today, TCT Kids, and Come On In as well as traditional televangelism programming.
