WCDN-LD

WCDN-LD is a low-power religious television station based in Cleveland, Ohio, in the United States. It operates as an affiliate of the Daystar Television Network, a faith-based Christian broadcaster founded in 1993 by Marcus and Joni Lamb. As a Daystar affiliate, WCDN-LD carries the network's interdenominational, family-friendly programming, which is distributed 24 hours a day, seven days a week, with the stated goal of reaching souls with the good news of Jesus Christ. Daystar describes itself as the largest Christian broadcast network in the world, growing from a single Christian station in the Dallas–Fort Worth market (KMPX) into a global operation. The network reports distribution into more than 2.4 billion homes worldwide and reaches over 7.3 billion people through its various media formats, including broadcast television, streaming, and mobile apps. WCDN-LD serves as one of the many local affiliates that extend this reach into the Cleveland television market. As a low-power station, WCDN-LD's coverage is focused on the Cleveland area rather than a wider region. Its role is primarily to rebroadcast Daystar's national feed, which includes original shows, teaching programs, and other Christian content. The station is part of a broad affiliate list that Daystar maintains across the United States. Ownership and operation of WCDN-LD fall under the Daystar Television Network, a privately held religious broadcasting organization. The network is headquartered in the Dallas–Fort Worth area of Texas, while WCDN-LD itself is based in Cleveland, Ohio. The station's website is the Daystar network homepage, reflecting its status as a network affiliate rather than an independently branded broadcaster.
