About us

Credo Television is a not for profit organization targeting Romanian speaking people everywhere. The way in which it operates is media in general and television in particular, that being the most far reaching tool of communication. Credo Television was started by a few visionaries as an institution designed to respond to challenges in today's world. As we study the past ages of mankind, we understand that in no other time in history have we seen the progress and dynamics of our time. Media is the channel by which good and evil are presented to humanity as choices. The problem is that as good is presented as a clear cut choice evil has reinvented itself as an acceptable choice. Through continuous exposure and aggressiveness, the human conscience is no longer able to clearly distinguish the difference.

1. Spiritual
Credo Television will have a priority on the production of spiritual programming, proclaiming without apologies the divinity of Jesus Christ, His virgin birth, His sinless life on earth, His atoning death, His resurrection in the body, His ascension to heaven, His present ministry as Mediator between God the Father and mankind, and His victorious second coming. We will clearly state that because of disobedience man is lost and called to return under God's authority through repentance and faith in the sacrifice of Jesus Christ, the only way to salvation. We will encourage unity of all Christians who are part of the Church - the Body of Christ. We will especially pay attention to the institution of family and its role as the basic unit of society in the form intended by God - its Creator.

2. Social
In Romania there is a great need for this kind of programming, as we are in a transition that created unexpected "values". Young people in particular are affected by on one hand, the past experience of communism and the instincts of survival, and on the other hand by the new capitalistic system of succeeding at all cost. Romanian society is exposed to many extreme, unrealistic and contradicting standards of success. The alternative that we want to present is a mentality of success based on hard work, honesty, creativity, perseverance, sacrifice and compassion. We want to emphasize production for children and youth encouraging them to stay in school, accept a high standard of morality and participating constructively in the social spectrum.

3. Cultural
True culture has become a victim in our transitional society. With 23 million Romanians living in the country of Romania and approximately 10 million in Diaspora, Credo Television is presenting itself as the promoter of authentic cultural values, Romanian and universal, music or poetry, but always Christian in identity, content and expression. As created by God, man is body, soul and spirit. Even as we might be perceived as a television with spiritual connotations, Credo will not neglect health programming, addressing the wholeness of our being. Documentaries, talk shows, news and informational presentations, all will contribute to an extensive area of interest. We understand that we cannot cover all preferences, and some viewers will not appreciate our values. Regardless, Credo Television will be the alternative to the commercially aggressive and of moral relativism choices dominating today's media. We already established connections with major Christian televisions around the world, especially in the United States. All English language programming will be subtitled in Romanian, thus keeping the original audio. That will be relevant not only to the Romanian speaking segment of our viewers but to many English speaking people in our satellite coverage area throughout Europe.
