The Edge Media is part of the United Christian Broadcasters - Initiatives for Asia (UCB-IFA). UCB-IFA is, in turn, part of UCB International.
Launched in partnership with United Christian Broadcasters and the Asian Seminary of Christian Ministries, The Edge Media is an offshoot of the desire to minister to pre-believers, feed Christ's flock, and continue discipleship all through the week. The station will also be used as a training ground for students from 15 Asian nations to learn how to open low cost stations in their countries. The Edge Media was also designed as an independent media resource that will unite the body of Christ with one strong voice, proclaiming Christ.
The Edge Media plays contemporary Christian music from pop to hip hop to alternative, to praise and gospel songs. It plays music from a wide range of Christian artists of various nationalities and will be supporting local contemporary Christian artists who play music fit to its format.
