Brother Crouch, raised in Missouri, is the son of [[Pentecostal]] missionaries. He became interested in amateur radio at a young age and the Lord inspired young Paul to use such technology to "send the Gospel around the world." He attended the Central Bible College in Springfield, Missouri. He began his missionary career as a lowly film librarian for the [[Assemblies of God]] in the early 1950s. In 1958, he married his wife, Jan. The couple has raised two sons, Matt and Paul, Jr. In 1961, Brother Crouch was hired to run the Assemblies of God's broadcast production facility in Burbank, California. Twelve years later, the Lord led him to leave his position and start TBN. In 1975, a vision from God led him to move the network into satellite transmission. Today, TBN programming is watched by millions of viewers worldwide.
