Viewers will be blessed by a number of gospel music shows that air on GEB, DirecTV Channel 363 and Tulsa TV 53, Monday through Friday from 3 to 5 p.m. CT.

"To say we are thrilled to be part of Golden Eagle Broadcasting would be an understatement. After 30 years of developing, producing and hosting a number of gospel music shows for several networks, this collaboration with GEB is our greatest moment," said Bill Traylor, president of PEBN. "Our goal is to bring quality gospel music with classic performances as well as today's latest and most popular artists and with our new show, SPIRITFEST, and with GEB's blessing and guidance, our goal is being achieved."

PEBN is committed to sharing its vast content of southern gospel music with the world. Shows such as Sing Out America, SPIRITFEST and others take viewers on a journey from seeing their favorite groups of days gone bye to watching those artists that have stepped up to fill their shoes.
