Overview

Mohabat TV (Persian: شبکه محبت, "Network of Love") is a Persian-language Christian satellite television network that has been broadcasting since 2006. According to its official website, it describes itself as the first 24-hour Christian satellite network dedicated to broadcasting Christian messages and programming specifically into Iran. The network operates around the clock, seven days a week, distributing its content via satellite and over the internet. The channel's stated mission is to bring the saving message of the Gospel of Jesus Christ to Persian speakers around the world, especially in Iran, Afghanistan and Tajikistan, and to help make the Bible available in every home. Beyond broadcasting, Mohabat TV says it aims to facilitate the establishment of house churches for the building and growth of the body of Christ. Its programming is distributed through platforms including Hotbird, Eutelsat and Galaxy (Jalali/Galaxy), as well as through social media. Mohabat TV positions itself as non-political, respectful of other religions, and non-sectarian, stating that it respects all true branches of Christianity. It affirms adherence to the Lausanne Covenant. The network also operates an online "Virtual Church of Mohabat" (کلیسای مجازی محبت), which it says welcomes anyone seeking truth and deepening their faith, regardless of location or stage of faith. The virtual church reports seven years of service, 80 shepherds from around the world, four monthly sessions, and 10,000 monthly visitors. The network produces a range of Persian-language Christian programs, including teaching, testimony, news and documentary-style content. Recent programs listed on its site include "Living Truth" with Jack Hibbs, "Pulse of Iran," "Trauma," "Narratives of Witnesses," "Turning Point – The Great Disappearance" with Dr. David Jeremiah, and "Connecting the Prophecies – Season Four." It also publishes articles on theological topics such as eternal punishment, justification, divine sovereignty and human freedom, limited atonement, the Trinity, and the theology of the cross. Mohabat TV is a niche but significant player in Persian-language Christian media, serving a diaspora and in-country audience that faces restrictions on Christian broadcasting in Iran. Its content is available via satellite, online streaming, and a dedicated app. The network has maintained a continuous presence for nearly two decades, describing itself as standing with Iranian viewers over the past twenty years.
