Many of the approximately 125 million children under the age of 16 in the Middle East and North Africa grow up surrounded by conflict. Countless are victims of war and poverty, and they face a media barrage that preys upon their daily worries to promote fear and blame. Many grow up without the hope found in the Gospel because they live in countries where nearly 97% of people are non-Christian, and Christians face persecution. But SAT-7 is a light in the darkness.

In Matthew 19:14, Jesus told His disciples to let the little children come to Him. Our biblically-based children’s programming on satellite TV, online, video-on-demand, and social media include Bible stories, cartoons, and worship shows. SAT-7 provides a safe and positive space for its young viewers to come to Jesus. We regularly hear from parents, even non-Christians, who tell us that they only allow their children to watch SAT-7 programs. But through SAT-7 Christian programming, children and their parents learn about God, His love for them, and how through faith in Jesus, they can have eternal life.
