Paul Crouch of TBN Ministries is the founder of TBN, which is the world’s largest religious network and America’s most watched faith channel. TBN offers 24 hours of commercial-free inspirational programming that appeal to people in a wide variety of Protestant, Catholic and Messianic Jewish denominations.
Born March 29, 1934 he is also the chairman, and president of the Trinity Broadcasting Network.
The network has grown to 47 satellite stations and 12,500 affiliates, reaching nearly 100,000,000 households globally.
Paul Franklin Crouch, raised in Missouri, is the son of Pentecostal missionaries. He became interested in amateur radio at an early age and announced he would use such technology to "send the Gospel around the world." He attended the Central Bible Institute in Springfield, Missouri.
In the early 1950s, he worked for the Assemblies of God as a film librarian. He married his wife, Jan, in 1958. His sons are Matt Crouch and Paul Crouch Jr.
In 1961 he was hired to run the Assemblies of God's broadcast production facility in Burbank, California, and from there he left to start TBN Ministries in 1973.
He claims that a vision from God in 1975 led him to move the network into satellite transmission.
Crouch family members control the boards of all Trinity network entities, which makes Trinity "ineligible to join" the Evangelical Council for Financial Accountability, an evangelical self-regulating group.
According to Charity Navigator, TBN Ministries paid him $419,000 in 2004 and gives the Trinity Broadcasting Network a rating of two out of four stars.
His wife earned $361,000 and son Paul F. Crouch Jr. earned $105,803. In addition, Crouch has produced products for the Trinity Broadcasting Network such as books and videos that account for a portion of his income.
On December 23, 2005, Mr. Crouch broke four ribs and underwent surgery to repair internal bleeding and building fluid in the chest cavity suffered after he took a fall.
His son, Paul Crouch Jr., said his father was doing "just fine" after the surgery and was expected to make a full recovery.
