Who we are

Television with a purpose

BTL TV is a Christian faith-based media platform that broadcasts in Urdu for Pakistani-speaking communities around the world. We are dedicated to spreading the Gospel of Jesus Christ through programming that educates, inspires and uplifts.

From the Netherlands we produce daily devotionals, talk shows on the issues our communities face, dramas, health programs and documentaries. Our pastors, hosts and producers work in Pakistan and the Netherlands, with our partners standing beside them.
