==Beginning==
During a trip to [[Jerusalem]] Marcus Lamb was instructed by [[God]] to start a [[Christian]] television station in Montgomery, Alabama.<ref>Lamb, Joni. (2008). ''Surrender All: Your Answer to Living with Peace, Power and Purpose'', WaterBrook Press, Pages 1-17</ref> Lamb and his wife, Joni, followed the instruction and put together as much money as they could in ordre to purchase a broadcast license permit in the city. They set up their station using equipment that other stations had tossed away. Their station, WMCF-TV 45, went up on 12 October 1985. Despite briefly losing power due to a bounced check and a small staff, they kept going. As the years went by, they were able to improve the presentation and gradually increase the viewership. Around 1990, Marcus received another direction from [[God]], this time to start a [[Christian]] television station in [[Dallas]].
