This inaugural broadcast of Trinity Broadcasting Network's flagship TV program demonstrates how a ministry's humble beginnings were indeed a miracle in the making! In a couple of decades TBN would grow to become the world's largest television network, a long way from its early days of buying air-time from a UHF TV station while renting an office building they remodeled themselves to act as a studio. Paul Crouch, Jim Bakker, and Rod Henke took turns hosting and co-hosting the program during the first year, while Jan Crouch was the main telephone prayer counselor.
