God's Learning Channel (or GLC) is a Christian television network which is based in the Southwestern United States.

The network was founded in 1982 by Al and Tommie Cooper with its first full-powered station based in Roswell, New Mexico. It is now produced in Midland, Texas by Prime Time Christian Broadcasting with KMLM serving as the flagship station. The network is available on terrestrial broadcast television and cable TV systems. th network has five full power stations (four of which have Digital television counterparts for compliancy with the Federal Communications Commission's 2009 standards) and 22 low-power TV stations; it is also broadcast free-to-air from the AMC-4 satellite as part of the Glorystar package, as a free-to-air channel on the Intelsat Americas 5 satellite for other direct-to-home broadcast dishes, and is available as streaming video over the Internet.

On April 15, 2006, GLC launched on APR-1 (Insat 2E) to provide its signal to the Eastern hemisphere. Because of the APR-1 satellite, On May 1, 2007, GLC was able to launch on the EutelSat W2 which covers Europe, North Africa, the Middle East, and Russia for direct-to-home satellite viewing. The network offers 24-hour programming, in English, Spanish, Persian, Tagalog, and Chinese.

GLC focuses on several general topics:

  1. Bridging the gap between Christians and their Hebraic heritage.
  2. Standing against Replacement Theology by proving through scripture that Christians do not Replace the Jews as the Chosen people, but are rather grafted in to the promises given to their father Abraham.
