What is Global Vision TV aka GV247.tv?

We live in an age of accelerating technology and knowledge, yet... mankind continues to cheat, rob, kill and destroy his fellow man. In a world of social media information overload, making informed decisions about what we believe and act upon has never been more important.

There are those who claim that the Christian Bible holds the answers to the meaning of life and the uncertainties that face individuals every day. Global Vision TV has interviewed a wide selection of compelling experts on biblical topics with the aim to provide a free viewing / listening resource. Choose from a wide selection of short and long form films which explore many of the most common questions asked today.

Who is Global Vision TV - and Finances

This digital network has always been funded by 'tent makers' Stewart and Deborah Menelaws of Studio Scotland, the latter working as Head of Production and who has never taken any salary, pay or benefits in order to help keep this network running - including the production of other Bibical programmes and films - as we look to the Lord's gracious provision.


At the request of those who have asked us, we have now added a ‘Donate’ button. Any donations go towards the enormous running costs of Global Vision TV and you can use the button below should The Lord lead you that way. Thanking you in advance!
